Author Notes
Overnight oats are one of my favorite breakfasts, and they are a snap to whip up, even in my tiny dorm room. The taste of these oats reminds me of a deliciously comforting apple pie. The apple butter is the secret ingredient in making the cozy magic happen. A simple, tasty, and healthy way to start the day! —Tyler
