Keyword: apple oatmeal
Servings: 1
- 1/2 cup milk any kind
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon or more to taste
for the apple:
- 1/2 apple diced small
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 3 tbsp water or more as needed
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Add the milk and water to a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Then, add the oats and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until the oats are soft, then stir in the maple syrup and cinnamon and transfer to a bowl.
Next, make the apples. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once warm, add the apple and sauté for 1-2 minutes, then add the water and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft. Last, add the cinnamon and stir until the apples are coated.
Top the oatmeal with the cinnamon apples, add an extra drizzle of maple syrup (optional) and enjoy!
*Calories are per serving and are an estimation
*The smaller you dice the apple, the more quickly it'll cook.
*Feel free to play around with the sweetness level. I don't mind this being a little sweet, but if you want it to be less sweet, start with 1 teaspoon of maple syrup and increase to taste. If you really don't want it to be sweet, use 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract instead.
