In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the rolled oats and water. Stir occasionally and bring to a simmer.
Add the almond milk, salt, and vanilla extract to the oats. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the oatmeal has thickened and the oats are fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sliced banana, diced apple, and blueberries. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm the fruit slightly.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the chia seeds, chopped almonds, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon. Mix well so the flavors blend together.
Divide the oatmeal evenly between two bowls.
Garnish with additional fruits or nuts if desired and serve warm.
