Apple, Lemon, & Blueberry Overnight Oats

Ingredients

½ cup Oats
½ cup Milk or Yogurt
½ Apple, cored and diced
¼ cup Blueberries
Squeeze of lemon juice
Pinch of cinnamon, optional

Instructions:

Core and dice the apple into small, bite-sized pieces.
Combine oats and liquid:
In a mason jar, bowl, or airtight container, add ½ cup oats and ½ cup milk or yogurt.
Stir to combine so the oats are fully moistened.
Stir in the diced apple and blueberries.
Add 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice – this keeps the apple from browning and adds a bright, fresh flavor.
Mix thoroughly
Refrigerate overnight, cover with a lid or plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for at least 6–8 hours (or overnight).
Stir the oats well and serve.

Notes:

Add ½ teaspoon cinnamon or drizzle honey/maple syrup for extra sweetness.
Top with extra blueberries, a few apple slices, or a sprinkle of nuts/seeds for crunch.
You can eat it cold straight from the fridge or warm it in the microwave for 30–45 seconds if you prefer.
