Zubereitung

1. 1

   This recipe makes a large batch of the cinnamon apples mixture and then gives quantities and directions for making single servings of the overnight oats or a large-batch quantity. The cinnamon apples mixture allows for 6 to 8 servings, depending on how much you use for each serving. The cinnamon apples keep well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. The combined oats mixture keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

   In a medium saucepan over medium to medium-high heat, stir together all ingredients for the cinnamon apples.

   Stir regularly until mixture starts to boil. Once boiling, turn heat down to low and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until mixture is thickened and apples are tender to your liking. I like the apples softened, but with a little bite left. Remove saucepan from heat.
