Apple Crumble Overnight Oats by @dinnersmellsgreat

Apple Overnight Oats 

Ingredients - 2 servings

200g rolled oats 
200g oat milk - we used grams to make it easier
1 grated apple 
1 tbsp lemon juice mixed with 2 tbsp water
½ tsp cinnamon
1 handful sultanas 

Method 

1. Grate the apple and mix straight away into the lemon and water to prevent it from turning brown. 

2. For a quick lunch with next to no washing up, place all of the remaining ingredients (along with the apple and water mix) straight into the bento bowl (or a bowl with lid) and mix until thoroughly combined. 

3. Leave the oats to soak overnight in the fridge.

Granola Peanut Butter Crumble Topping

Ingredients: 

200g rolled oats
40g peanut butter 
70g coconut oil
2 tbsp honey (or sweetener of your choice) 
10 almonds - roughly chopped
1 tbsp mixed seeds
½ tsp cinnamon
Sea salt flakes to taste     

Method

1. Place all of the ingredients into a bowl and mix well - spread the mix evenly onto a baking tray and place into an oven preheated to 150°c, bake for 90-120 minutes.

2. Halfway through cooking, take the tray out and gently press down on the granola for bigger clusters.

3. Leave them to cool before breaking apart any larger clumps. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.

Apple Rings

 Ingredients

1 large eating apple
1 tbsp lemon juice mixed with 2 tbsp water
1 tsp cinnamon

Method

1. Core the apple and slice into very thin rings (we used a mandolin). Place the rings directly into the lemon juice and water mix to prevent the apple browning.

2. Pat the apple dry using a clean tea towel and place on a baking tray so that each slice is separate. 

3. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon and bake in the oven at 100°c for 90 minutes, turning at 30-minute intervals during cooking. 

Apple Sauce

 Ingredients

3 medium eating apples 
1 tbsp lemon juice
100 ml apple juice

 Method

1. Mix the lemon juice and apple juice into a small saucepan. 

2. Peel, core and chop the apples and add to the pan. 

3. Simmer on a low heat until the fruit is soft, then place in a food processor or liquidizer and blitz until it’s completely puréed. 

Enjoy!
