Overnight Apples and Oats

2.25 cups of old fashioned oats
6 small-medium apples, your choice
cinnamon, to taste
ancho chili powder, to taste
1 packet of stevia or sweetener of choice
Water (between one and two cups depending on how thick you like your oatmeal)

Slice two apples into medium thick slices that layer the bottom of the pan.
Sprinkle one cup of oats over the sliced apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon, chili powder and half of the stevia packet.

Repeat layering.

Dice remaining two apples and sprinkle over the top. Pour water over the top.

Cook on low overnight.

This makes between 4 and 5 servings and points vary based on the size of your apples.

that sounds great! I'm not a huge oatmeal fan, but I might try this.

Disclaimer:

I get asked by readers if I am being paid to push products. The simple answer is no. In fact, most of the products I write about are ones I have found and purchased during my trips to the grocery store or on the road. Occasionally, a company will send a sample my way and if I believe the product will serve a need for my readers and I would buy the product myself, then I will share it with you. Sometimes I will write to a company after reading about it, if I believe it will help us lead healthier lifestyles. But even then, if the product doesn't pass my scrutiny, it won't make the screen of Uncovering Food. You can trust that every product or recipe posted here has passed through my lips, and that I wouldn't blog about it if it wasn't worthy of you... my favorite readers.
