Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.125 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup apple slices, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water is boiling, stir in 1 cup of rolled oats and reduce the heat to medium.
Let the oats cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed most of the water and are creamy for about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle in the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, stirring to combine them evenly with the oats.
Add the vanilla extract and salt, continuing to stir for an additional minute.
Stir in the thinly sliced apple pieces and cook for another minute to slightly soften them.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for a minute or two to thicken to the desired consistency.
Serve the oats warm in bowls and drizzle the honey or maple syrup on top for added sweetness.
