Apple Cinnamon Sweet Potato Overnight Oats
Overnight Oats: for a breakfast that is fast, easy, nutritious, and yummy! Plus, you can top it with any ingredients, so the possibilities are endless. Here is one of my favorite ways to make them:

Step 2: In your container, add your oats. I used 2/3 cup old fashioned oats plus ~1/2 tsp cinnamon, around 2 tbsp. of brown sugar, and 1 tbsp. chia seeds.

You can enjoy this hot or cold. I like to add in more apple or berries and nuts.
Substitute sweet potatoes for banana, applesauce, peanut butter, yogurt, or……
