Ingredients
Oatmeal
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1 cup uncooked steel cut oats
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Apple Crisp Topping
- 1 tablespoon butter or melted coconut oil
- 2 apples, peeled, cored and diced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/2 cup granola
- 1/4 cup toasted pecans chopped (optional)
Instructions
- In a saucepan combine the water, milk, oats, spices and salt. Stir together and bring it to a boil. Once boiling lower the heat and let the oats simmer for 25-30 minutes. 30 minutes yields a creamier consistency. If the oats get too thick add in a tablespoon of water at a time to loosen them up.
- While the oats are cooking melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, cinnamon and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Sauté the apples until they're soft, but not mushy, about 7-8 minutes. Stir in the maple syrup and cook another minute. Remove from the heat and keep warm until the oatmeal is ready.
- Once the oatmeal is your desired consistency, turn off the heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Divide the oatmeal into 4 servings and top with the apples, granola, and pecans.
