1. Whisk together the milk, peanut butter, chia seeds, spices, maple syrup, and vanilla in a medium bowl.

2. Use a hand grater to shred the apple, and then squeeze to remove excess liquid. Stir the apple into the milk mixture.

3. Stir in the oats and cover the bowl. Place in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least eight hours.

4. Serve with optional toppings.

Notes:

1. This recipe can be doubled. For best results, refrigerate in one bowl to allow for liquid absorption, then separate into smaller containers to store. Best eaten within 3-4 days.

2. This can be warmed to serve if desired. Heat in a small saucepan over low heat, adding extra liquid if needed.
