Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 4 cups water or milk of choice
  • 2 medium apples, peeled and diced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the apples into small, bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the diced apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon of water. Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until apples soften and become fragrant.
  3. Stir in the rolled oats, then pour in the water or milk and add the salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low.
  4. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reached your desired consistency.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Let stand for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a creamier texture, use half water and half milk. Let the oatmeal rest after cooking to allow flavors to meld. The oatmeal will thicken as it cools; add a splash of milk or water when reheating.
