Instructions
Step 1
Start by bringing 1 cup of plant-based milk and a pinch of salt to a boil in a saucepan.
Then, add 1/2 cup of rolled oats and stir well. Cook according to the package directions, typically about 20 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed the liquid and are tender.
Once cooked, remove from heat and cover to let it sit and steam for a few minutes.
Step 2
While the oatmeal is resting, heat a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of vegetable oil.
Chop 1 apple into small cubes and add it to the skillet with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg.
Sauté the mixture on low heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and fragrant.
Step 3
Once both the oatmeal and apple filling are ready, it’s time to assemble your breakfast. Start by placing the cooked oatmeal into a bowl, and top it generously with the spiced apple filling.
If desired, drizzle 1 teaspoon of honey on top for added sweetness.
This delightful oatmeal is perfect for a cozy breakfast, especially when paired with a cup of tea and your favorite candle for ambience. Enjoy!
Servings
Enjoy your apple cinnamon oatmeal hot, topped with a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness. **Pair it with a warm cup of tea** or coffee to complete the experience. 🍵 For an extra touch of coziness, consider serving it in your favorite **mug or bowl** to really relish the moment.
If you're feeling adventurous, why not add some chopped nuts or dried fruit on top for added texture and flavor? 🥜✨ You could even sprinkle some additional cinnamon or a dollop of nut butter to enhance the richness. **Don’t forget to light a candle** nearby to set the perfect atmosphere – it makes your meal feel even more special! 🕯️

Using rolled oats is best as they cook quickly and give a nice creamy texture. Avoid instant oats as they may become mushy.

Absolutely! You can cook the oatmeal and store it in the fridge. Reheat with a splash of milk or water to loosen it up the next morning.
