Apple Pie Parfait

The title of this blog post is really attractive isn't it? :) Anyways this blog post will be about a recipe I whipped up while I was playing with my original Strawberry-Banana Parfait recipe the other night. It came along when I realized that I didn't have any more coconut milk to make the strawberry banana ice cream so I decided that I would try a brand new parfait that day, so here's what I did.....



Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 Almond Milk 
  • Pinch of Nutmeg
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Chia Seeds
  • 2 Pinches of Cinnamon
  • 1 Apple
  • 1 Tablespoon Blue Fig Agave or Honey
  • 1/2 of a Banana
  • 1 Tablespoon of Peanut Butter (optional)
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extarct
Directions:
  1. Mix your old fashioned oats, almond milk, nutmeg, chia seeds, cinnamon, agave, and vanilla extract into a fairly large bowl.
  2. Funnel or scoop the well mixed mixture into jars or a bowl to sit overnight.
  3. Use your apple cutter or knife to chop up your apple into very small pieces. (I do not recommend using a gala apple or any other relatively soft apples for this recipe.)
  4. Pour the apples in your bowl or jar and cover with plastic wrap and place in your fridge overnight.
  5. The next morning take out your overnight oats and slice the banana into thick pieces and pour the banana into your jar or bowl. (DO NOT PUT THE OTHER HALF OF YOUR BANANA IN THE FRIDGE- it will dry it out and bye the time you get home from work/school it will be brown.)
  6. If you like you could scoop the peanut butter on top (I liked the taste of peanut butter, apples and banana but Colbie did not want to try it because she doesn't really like peanut butter. Either way it still tastes good. :)
  7. Wah-lah, you are done | Enjoy!

 * Sorry no fancy picture for this one because it looks really close to the Strawberry Banana Parfait. The picture above is from Yummly on "MyRecipes" page under this link. Let me know if you want to see mine and I won't be lazy and actually take a picture for you guys :)*
