Steps

  1. The night before, stir the oats with the kefir and half of the cinnamon in a small container; cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours so the oats soften.
  2. In the morning, blend or whisk the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, vanilla and half of the maple syrup until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Toss the apple with the lemon juice, the dates, the remaining half of the cinnamon, the nutmeg and the remaining half of the maple syrup; let sit 5 minutes so the juices draw out.
  4. Stir the walnuts into the soaked oats to make a crumble.
  5. Build 4 glasses: spoon in one quarter of the whipped cottage cheese mixture, then one quarter of the apple mixture, then one quarter of the oat crumble, repeating in two thinner layers per glass so all of each component is used. Serve cold.
