Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 medium apple cut in half (remove stem/seeds/core).
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1+ teaspoon maple syrup
- Pinch salt
- ¼+ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Boil water in a stovetop teapot or an electric tea kettle.
- Prepare the apple: Take half of the apple and chop it into chunks. Place apple chunks in the bottom of your oatmeal bowl and muddle until you have a homemade applesauce of sorts. (If you don’t have a muddle, you could mince the apple with a sharp knife. Alternatively, you could use an immersion blender to puree the apple.)Take the other half of the apple and cut it into thin slices. Then cut those thin slices in half. Set these aside for topping.
- Add the rolled oats, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt to your oatmeal bowl and pour hot water over the top.
- Let sit for 5 minutes (until the oats have soaked up most of the water).
- Add sliced apple on top, along with any other toppings you like!
