Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Step 1

Add milk, water, and salt to a small pot. Stir everything together.

Step 2

Place the uncovered pot over medium-high heat until it starts to boil (it will take roughly 3 minutes to boil).

Step 3

Once the mixture starts to boil, immediately turn the heat down to low, add the oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using) to the pot, and stir.

Step 4

Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes. When there are 2 minutes left, add the apples and stir. Continue cooking until the remaining time has passed. Remove the pot from the heat.

Step 5

Pour the oatmeal into a bowl, and add the maple syrup and any extra add-ins if using. Extra milk can be added to help cool it and make it creamier. Garnish with toppings of your choice.
