Candy Corn Overnight Oats with Crown Maple
Tis the season! Well, for anything pumpkin-spiced, cinnamon-spiced, & nutmeg-spiced, that is.
The “basic white girl” is coming out of us full force this Halloween season, but instead of pumpkin-spiced lattes, we’re bringing you something even better… OVERNIGHT OATS!
Overnight oats have become a serious foodie trend recently and we’re right on board. This simple, healthy breakfast has become our savior because like many of you, we don’t have the time in the morning to sit down and eat a fully cooked meal. But, we can’t forget that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so we’ve converted to overnight oats fanatics!
In the height of fall, we’ve partnered up with Crown Maple to show off our favorite, Halloween-themed overnight oats recipe. Crown Maple makes organic, 100% pure maple syrup and maple sugar, which are the perfect ingredients to sweeten up your newfound favorite breakfast! Organic maple syrup is a wonderful vegan sweetener and maple sugar is an amazing alternative to granulated sugars.
