2. 2

   In a saucepan over medium heat, stir rolled oats, milk (or water), and a pinch of salt until the mixture comes to a gentle boil, about 5 minutes, until creamy and steaming.

3. 3

   Lower heat to medium-low and cook oats, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes until they reach a soft, pudding-like consistency.

   In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and toss in sliced apples. Sprinkle ground cinnamon and cook, stirring, until apples soften and edges turn golden, about 6 minutes.

5. 5

   Drizzle maple syrup or honey over apples and stir for 1–2 minutes until each slice glistens with a caramelized sheen.

6. 6

   Spoon warm oats into bowls, top with cinnamon apples, and add optional nuts, seeds, or yogurt for extra crunch and creaminess.
