Ingredients

4 servings

2granny smith apples

2 Tbspbutter

1 tspcinnamon

2 cupswhole milk

1 cupold fashioned rolled oats

1 pinchsalt

2 Tbspmaple syrup

or aguave sugar or brown sugar

Instructions

Step 1

Peel and core the apples; chop into ½-inch pieces (or whatever size you prefer).

Step 2

In a medium saucepan (I use a 3-quart saucepan), melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the chopped apples and cinnamon; stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples begin to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes. Note: The apples will continue to cook and soften with the oatmeal, so don't take them too far at this point so they don't end up mushy.

Step 4

Add the milk, oats and salt; stir to combine. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil (note: don't walk away; keep a close eye on the pot because the milk can quickly boil over if you're not paying attention).

Step 5

Immediately reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the oats have softened and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the maple syrup; serve.
