Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal is a hot breakfast that smells like apple pie and tastes as if fall has arrived.

📝 Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 3 3/4 cups water
• 3 small sweet apples or 2 cups apple pieces (diced small)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• dash of nutmeg
• 1/4 cup (plus 1-2 tablespoons brown sugar, adjust to taste)
• Butter (a teaspoon or so for on top of each serving)
• Optional: chopped pecans (just a sprinkling for serving each bowl)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Combine the oats, water, apples, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium size saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
2. 2As soon as it boils, reduce heat to low and simmer for just a few minutes, until the oats are soft and the apples are tender. Remove from the heat and add brown sugar to taste.
3. 3The sweeter the apples, the less brown sugar you will need. Scoop into serving bowls and top with butter and pecans if desired. Enjoy!
