I accidentally made some tasty oats and decided they were needed on the blog. They aren’t loaded with sugar so they’re just sweet enough but not an overload of sweet.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup quick oats (it’s what I used, but you’re more than welcome to take the time to make rolled oats or steel cut oats)
• 1 cup unsweetened soy milk (or plant milk of choice)
• 1/2 honey crisp apple
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 1 splash vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp maple syrup

Directions:

1. Cook oats according to package – my quick oats said 1/2 c oats to 1 c liquid for about 5 minutes but rolled oats usually take 15 minutes and steel cut oats take about 25-30 minutes.
2. While oats are cooking, chop 1/2 honey crisp apple into cubes.
3. Pour cooked oats into bowl. Place pot back onto stove top. Add cubed apples, splash vanilla extract, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes until apples are coated well and slightly tender.
4. Pour apple mixture on top of bowl of cooked oats. Enjoy!  

Love,
