Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 medium Apple, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Stir in the diced apple, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat. Cook the oat mixture, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes, or until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the almond milk.

Let the oats sit for a minute or two to thicken, then divide the mixture between two serving bowls.
If desired, top with additional walnuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
