Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

September 5, 2017 By Liza Cannata Leave a Comment

IMG_4188The end of summer is always bittersweet.  As hard as it is to say goodbye to the long lazy days, I certainly welcome more routine, structure, and apple season!  With the return of school, breakfast is at 7am instead of 9am, and it’s always a push to get out the door.  This is a great, hearty breakfast you can prepare the night before.  I put all the ingredients in a pot and cover and place in fridge overnight.  In the morning, all I have to do it cook it! Plus, soaking the oats overnight breaks down enzyme inhibitors, which makes the oats more digestible and absorbable.  It also cuts cooking time.
