Description

Ingredients

• ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 medium crisp apple, about 1½ cups diced
• 3 tablespoons honey (OR 2 tablespoons brown sugar), plus a little more to drizzle over the finished oatmeal
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• pinch of salt
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup old fashioned oats (or gluten free oats!)
• ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• ½ cup milk (optional)

Directions

• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add 1 cup of the apples, the honey or brown sugar, and sprinkle in the spices and salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the apples are softened.
• Pour in the water, turn the heat up to high, and bring to a low boil. Add the oats and reduce the heat to medium/medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally for 3-5 more minutes.
• Add the walnuts (if using), and continue cooking until most of the liquid is absorbed. Divide the oatmeal between two bowls, sprinkle each with the remaining apples, drizzle with a little more honey, and splash ¼ cup milk into each bowl.
