Apple Pomegranate Overnight Oats

Apple-pomegranate overnight oats are a delicious and nutritious breakfast option that combines the natural sweetness of apples and pomegranates with fiber-rich oats. The tartness of pomegranates complements the sweet, crisp flavor of apples. For the best flavor and sweetness, consider using sweet apple varieties such as Honeycrisp, Fuji or Gala.

Ingredients:

  • 2 small apples, divided
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1¼ cups unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened apple juice
  • ½ cup low-fat plain greek-style strained yogurt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup pomegranate arils
  • ¼ cup chopped dried apples

Directions:

  • Grate 1 small apple through the large holes of a box grater; place in a large bowl. Add 2 cups oats, 1¼ cups almond milk, ½ cup each apple juice and yogurt and ¼ teaspoon each cinnamon and salt; stir to combine. Dice the remaining apple. Divide the diced apple and ¼ cup pomegranate arils among four 8-ounce jars; cover each with oat mixture. Screw on lids and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to 5 days.
  • Before serving, stir to combine. Top each jar with 1 tablespoon dried apples.
