A below-par Liverpool, seeking a third consecutive league win, could have few complaints as Forest produced a superb performance to earn their second victory of the season.
Juergen Klopp's side were off the pace in the first half as a disciplined Forest side knocked them out of their rhythm.
Forest went ahead in the 55th minute when Awoniyi, who was once on Liverpool's books but never played a game, poached a rebound after his initial effort struck the post.
Forest held on and moved to 19th place with nine points from 12 games, one ahead of Leicester City.
Liverpool, still without an away win, are in seventh place with 16 points from 11 games.
Erling Haaland struck twice and Kevin de Bruyne scored a stunning second-half goal as Manchester City earned a 3-1 home win over Brighton & Hove Albion.
The victory moved second-placed City on to 26 points after 11 games, one behind leaders Arsenal who visit Southampton tomorrow. Brighton are eighth on 15 points.
An injury-time equaliser from Casemiro earned Manchester United a point at Chelsea in the battle for fourth place.
The Brazilian's headed ball was pushed on to the post by Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa and it just crossed the line to make the score 1-1.
The two sides had been heading for a lively if disjointed goalless draw until an 87th-minute Jorginho penalty looked to have settled the match in Chelsea's favour.
The result keeps Chelsea in fourth place, a point ahead of United.
The Manchester side and France's World Cup squad will be concerned for Raphael Varane, who went over on his ankle midway through the second half and limped away looking distraught.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored his first goal of the season as Everton ended their three-match losing streak with a 3-0 win over Crystal Palace at home.
Frank Lampard's team climbed four spots up to 11th in the league table on 13 points after 12 games, while Palace slipped to 12th on 13 points with a game in hand.
