Ingredients:
1 Apple, cored and sliced 1 Tbsp Butter 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar 1 tsp Cinnamon 1/4 tsp Nutmeg 1/2 tsp Sea Salt 1-1/2 cups Regular Rolled Oats (GF will work fine too!) 1-1/2 cups Water 1-1/2 cups Apple Juice |
Directions:
Combine the butter and sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium heat and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until melted and blended. Add the apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and cook for about 4 minutes, stirring, until the apples release their juices. Add the oats and cook for about 2 more minutes, until the juices are absorbed, stirring to prevent sticking. Add the apple juice and water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until the oatmeal is thick and the apples are soft.
Let the cooked oatmeal rest, covered for 2 minutes. Serve hot with any combination of toasted nuts, fresh fruit, cream, extra cinnamon or brown sugar.
Tip: Frozen apples work great in this recipe and don't be afraid to double or triple! I personally like to use extra apples.
