If you’re looking for a comforting, energizing, and healthy breakfast, Apple Cinnamon Oats is the perfect choice. It’s a simple recipe that combines the natural sweetness of apples, the wholesomeness of oats, and the warmth of cinnamon — giving your morning the perfect start!
🕒 Preparation Time: 10 minutes
🍽️ Serves: 1–2
Ingredients:
½ cup rolled oats
1 cup milk (or almond milk for a vegan option)
1 apple (peeled and grated or finely chopped)
½ teaspoon cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
A pinch of salt
Chopped nuts or raisins for garnish
1. Warm the Base:
Pour milk into a small saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer on medium flame.
2. Add Oats:
Stir in the oats and let them cook for 3–4 minutes until they start to thicken. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.
3. Add the Flavor:
Mix in grated apple, cinnamon powder, and a pinch of salt. Cook for another 2–3 minutes.
The aroma of cinnamon and apple together will fill your kitchen — that’s your sign it’s almost ready!
4. Sweeten Naturally:
Turn off the flame and add honey or maple syrup. Stir well for a smooth, creamy texture.
5. Garnish & Serve:
Pour into a bowl and top with chopped almonds, walnuts, or raisins for extra crunch.
💡 Tips:
For a thicker texture, reduce milk slightly.
Add chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber.
You can also prepare it overnight (as Overnight Apple Cinnamon Oats) — just refrigerate the mix and enjoy cold in the morning.
