Stove Top Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal
Report
Apple cinnamon oatmeal is creamy and lightly sweet, and with warm spices, it’s a perfect fall breakfast for chilly mornings. This delicious warm breakfast is made on a stovetop in under 15 minutes. Tastes like homemade apple pie, but healthy and packed with nutrients.

Ingredients
- 2 apples
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Pinch of sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon powder
- Pinch of nutmeg
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats gluten-free oats
- 2 ½ cups milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ to 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Toppings-
- Cinnamon Apples
- pecans
- drizzle of maple syrup
Instructions
- Peel and core apples and dice them. You can keep apples in big pieces if you like the bite of it in oatmeal.
- Melt butter in a saucepan. Add diced apples along with cinnamon powder and dash of nutmeg and a dash of sea salt. Sauté for a few minutes until the apples begin to soften. Don't take it too far, apples will continue to cook with oats and become mushy in the oatmeal.
- Add rolled oats to apple mix and sauté for a minute. This step is optional. I like to sauté oats before adding the liquid that helps bring out the flavor of oats. Add milk of your choice, and reduce heat to medium-low. Add vanilla extract, and another pinch of salt(optional) and cook by constantly stirring the oats until oats have soaked up all the liquid and turned creamy.
- Once cooked turn off heat. Stir in maple syrup.
- Transfer hot oatmeal to a serving bowl, add your favorite topping. I prefer apple cinnamon oatmeal topped with cinnamon apples and chopped pecans and an extra drizzle of maple syrup if needed. Serve immediately hot.
Notes
- Nutritional Info – Please keep in mind that the nutritional information provided is only a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
- Pretty much any variety of apples can be used in the recipe. I prefer sweet apples like Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples.
- You may peel the skin from apples before dicing, or choose to leave the skin on. Your choice.
- Love chunks of apples in oatmeal, dice them into ½ inch pieces.
- Old-fashioned rolled oats are best for this recipe. I do not recommend you use instant oats or quick oats; they will turn mushy.
- To avoid gluten, make sure to use certified gluten-free old-fashioned oats.
- For creamier oatmeal use whole milk.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or brown sugar. Adjust the amount to your preferred sweetness.
- Not an Apple fan? Feel free to use peaches or pears instead.
- Don’t worry if oatmeal thickens up. Oatmeal will thicken as it cools. If chilled/stored in the refrigerator it will harden. You can get it to the right preferred consistency by adding a splash of milk or water and warming it on the stovetop or microwave.
