Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup water
- 1 medium, diced apple
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons, plus extra for drizzling (optional) caramel sauce
- 2 tablespoons, optional chopped pecans or walnuts
- optional for topping whipped cream
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, water, ground cinnamon, and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Stir in the rolled oats and diced apple. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves and begins to bubble, about 1-2 minutes.
Pour the caramelized sugar mixture into the oatmeal and stir well to combine.
Cook the oatmeal for another 3-5 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency. Stir in the vanilla extract and caramel sauce.
Remove the oatmeal from heat and divide it evenly between two bowls.
Top each bowl with a drizzle of additional caramel sauce, a sprinkling of chopped nuts, and a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, caramel-infused apple oatmeal!
