1 cup oatmeal and 2 apples

This Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal is a warm, comforting breakfast that’s not only quick to prepare but also nutritious. The sweetness of the apples combined with the spice of cinnamon makes for a delightful start to your day. It’s perfect for chilly mornings and can easily be customized to suit your taste.

Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats (or quick oats)
• 2 cups water or milk (for creamier oatmeal)
• 2 apples, diced (you can use any variety, but Granny Smith or Honeycrisp are great choices)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
• Pinch of salt
• Chopped nuts or raisins for topping (optional)

Directions

1. Prepare the Oats: In a medium saucepan, bring the water or milk to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the rolled oats. Reduce the heat to medium and cook according to package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes for rolled oats).
2. Add Apples and Cinnamon: While the oats are cooking, add the diced apples and cinnamon to the pot. Stir well to combine. Continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the apples are tender and the oats are cooked to your desired consistency.
3. Sweeten (if desired): If you like your oatmeal sweeter, stir in honey or maple syrup at this point.
4. Serve: Remove from heat and serve warm. Top with chopped nuts or raisins if desired.

Tips for Making the Best Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

• Choose the Right Apples: For a balance of sweetness and tartness, mix different types of apples or use your favorite variety.
• Add Extras: Consider adding a tablespoon of nut butter, chia seeds, or flaxseeds for added nutrition.
• Store Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of water or milk to loosen the oatmeal.
