Creating Overnight Oats with a Holiday Twist is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, and chia seeds, if using.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup until smooth.
3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined.
4. Add Fruits and Nuts: Gently fold in the diced apples and dried cranberries. If you’re using nuts, add them at this stage.
5. Divide into Jars: Spoon the mixture evenly into individual jars or containers with lids.
6. Chill: Seal the jars and place them in the refrigerator. Allow them to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best flavor and texture.
7. Serve: When ready to eat, give the oats a good stir. Top with fresh fruit, additional nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

These steps will guide you in creating a delicious breakfast that’s full of festive flavors and nutrients.
