Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1.5 cups water
- 0.5 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 medium apple (diced)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
- 0.25 teaspoons salt

Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, milk, and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the rolled oats and diced apple. Reduce the heat to low, and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and the apples are tender.
Add the maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the oatmeal. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the butter or coconut oil, if using, for extra creaminess.
Divide the oatmeal into two serving bowls. Top with sliced almonds and drizzle with additional maple syrup, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your Maple Apple Almond Oatmeal!
