Mornings can get crazy in our house. If you are like us, it’s super helpful to have a quick and easy breakfast ready to go. I love making baked oats ahead of time and breakfast sandwiches on the fly. But, my new favorite macro-friendly breakfast has got to be apple pie overnight protein oats. These oats make mornings so easy because everything is prepped ahead of time the night before. Plus, you start your day with something that is delicious and good for you!
What You’ll Need for Apple Pie Overnight Protein Oats:
- Old-fashioned oats, gluten-free if needed
- Chia seeds
- Cinnamon
- Vanilla
- Pinch of salt
- Vanilla protein powder
- Silk cashew milk, or your favorite milk
- Apple, diced tiny
- Extra cinnamon for topping
How to Make Apple Pie Overnight Protein Oats:
You are going to love how simple and delicious these apple pie overnight protein oats are to make! In a jar or small pyrex bowl, combine your oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. I get a lot of questions about the jars I use for overnight oats and puddings. Here they are, my favorite jars for overnight oats. These jars are THE perfect size. Plus, I love that they are glass and you can see all the yummy goodness!
Next, blend your protein powder with milk. My ALL-TIME favorite non-dairy protein is Active Stacks which is a beef protein powder. For this recipe, I used Active Stacks vanilla protein powder flavor, but their chocolate is my very favorite! Especially in my night-time peanut butter chocolate shake. If you haven’t tried Active Stacks, use my code Lillie for 10% off your purchase. It is so yummy!
If you don’t need to have dairy-free products on your radar, my family and I also LOVE the protein powder from Clean Simple Eats. Brownie batter. White chocolate peppermint. Basic vanilla (trust me, it’s not basic in flavor). They are all so good! It is seriously the yummiest grass-fed whey out there. Use my code LILLIE for 10% off your purchase.

Once you’ve blended your favorite protein powder with your milk of choice, pour it over the oats, and combine well. If your powder dissolves easily, simply throw both into the jar without blending!
To finish off your overnight protein oats, stir in your diced apples. Then pop it in the fridge overnight and dream about the delicious breakfast you will get to enjoy come morning. I like mixing my oats once or twice during the process to make sure the chia seeds don’t get clumpy. You don’t have to mix it, but I think it makes the texture even better.
Talking about texture, if you like your oats extra thick, use a little less milk when putting the recipe together. I like mine to last longer! Haha…So, I stir in extra milk before eating them.
Enjoy the next morning!
Serving Suggestions:
I love to top my apple pie overnight protein oats with additional apples, cinnamon, and a little dairy-free whipped cream.

It’s the only overnight oats recipe I actually like!
Yum! Filling, super easy to make a bunch at the beginning of the week! Lillie never disappoints!
These are the best! I also love to use the CSE snickerdoodle instead of vanilla sometimes. Love the crunch of the apples.
This is so delicious! I’ve made it the last couple nights to have in the morning and I’ve looked forward to it each morning. Only problem is I wish it was as big as your Smoothie Bowl 😂
These are delicious and filling just like all Lillie recipes!
