Ingredients

Apple Spice Topping

  • 1 medium apple cubed
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon or more!
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup water

Oatmeal

  • 2 cups water
  • 1-1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats depending on how thick you like your oatmeal
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Add all of the Apple Spice Topping ingredients to a medium saucepan. Cook down over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set apples aside in a small bowl.
  • In the same saucepan, boil 2 cups of water. This way all those spices left in the pan will flavor your oats too!
  • Add the oats and cook until desired consistency, for at least 5 minutes over low heat.
  • Add the apples back in and top with walnuts. Enjoy!!
  • Leftovers are super easy- microwave oats for 30 seconds with a little bit of almond milk.
