Top Tips – Apple and Hazelnut Overnight Oats
This is so much better if left in the fridge overnight before making – but two hours should be enough if you cannot wait…
If you don’t eat oats you could use rice flakes or millet flakes as an alternative to oats.
Depending on when you make this you can use other seasonal fruit and sub the cinnamon for other spices. You can also use frozen fruit (thawed).
