Cinnamon Overnight Oats
A make-ahead breakfast that does the work while you sleep, ready to spoon straight from the fridge.

Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk of your choice
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 small apple, grated
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- A pinch of salt
Method
- In a medium bowl, stir together the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
- Pour in the milk and vanilla, then add the yogurt. Stir well until everything is evenly combined and the chia is no longer clumped.
- Fold through the grated apple so it spreads through the mixture rather than sitting on top.
- Divide between two jars or bowls, press down lightly and cover. Chill in the fridge overnight, or for at least four hours.
- In the morning, give each portion a good stir. Loosen with a splash more milk if it is thicker than you like.
- Top with the chopped walnuts and an extra dusting of cinnamon, then serve cold or gently warmed.
Why it earns a place on the plate
Overnight oats are the friend who shows up early and ready. You do the small bit of work the night before, and breakfast simply waits for you. That makes it easy to start the day with something proper rather than skipping or grabbing whatever is nearest.
Rolled oats bring slow, comforting bulk, while the chia seeds and yogurt add a little extra body and protein so the bowl feels genuinely filling. Grated apple folds in natural sweetness and a fresh bite, and the walnuts give a welcome bit of crunch and richness. Cinnamon ties it all together with that cosy, kitchen-warming aroma.
It also keeps beautifully, so you can make a double batch and have two mornings sorted. Pair with your daily two capsules of Solva if you take them with breakfast.
