Apple Cinnamon Spice Oatmeal
Get cozy with a warm bowl of this Apple Cinnamon Spice Oatmeal, a fall-inspired oatmeal recipe with tart apples, ginger and cinnamon!
Equipment
- Small Pan
Ingredients
- ½ cup (45g) dry quick-cooking or rolled oats
- 1.5 cup (375mL) oat milk add more milk as needed
- ¾ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp (10g) chia seeds
- 1 tbsp (15g) almond butter
- 1 medium (212g) green apple chopped into small pieces
- ¼ tsp fresh ginger very finely grated
- 2 medium (40g) Medjool dates pitted and chopped
- pinch pink salt
- plump black raisins, pecans, figs, green apple slices optional toppings
- pure maple syrup additional sweetener, if desired
Instructions
- Mix together all ingredients in a small pan on the stove top over low heat, until the oats start cooking and bubbling. This will take about 20 minutes. Use a wooden spoon to continuously stir the oats, so they don't stick to the bottom of the pot.
- If you prefer your oats to be more "runny" rather than thick, add another half cup of oat milk after the 1.5 cups.
- Once the oats thicken and reach your desired consistency, turn off the stove and pour the oats into a bowl. If you prefer extra sweetness, add pure maple syrup, more chopped dates or coconut sugar into the oats at this time.
- Enjoy them warm! Top with chopped apples, pecans, cinnamon, or other optional toppings!

Storage
