Fall-Themed
Overnight Oats:
2 Ways

​
Are you searching for a hassle-free & nourishing breakfast option this fall? If so, I have got you covered with these fall-themed overnight oats!
I personally love making overnight oats because of how convenient they are for my busy mornings. You can just toss all the ingredients in a jar ahead of time and have it ready-to go for the morning. I usually choose the same base ingredients but change up my topping choices based on my mood, the season, or whatever ingredients I have on hand. For these fall-themed overnight oats, I chose ingredients that remind me of this cozy and colorful season like hand-picked apples, 100% pumpkin puree, pecans, and cinnamon. Not only are these overnight oats scrumptious, they also come with a nutritional punch. The mix of ingredients provide a dose of fiber, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates that can be satiating and fuel you up through the morning.
Which flavor will you choose today?!
