A warm and comforting oatmeal bowl loaded with diced apple, warm cinnamon, and a touch of maple, ready in under 10 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups almond milk (or any plant-based milk; dairy milk works too)
  • 1 apple, diced (preferably Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional; use honey if not vegan)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Toppings (optional): sliced almonds, more diced apples, raisins

Instructions

  1. Add the oats, almond milk, diced apple, cinnamon, maple syrup (if using), and salt to a medium pot. Stir briefly to combine.
  2. Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Watch carefully to prevent it from foaming over.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring every minute to prevent sticking, for about 5–7 minutes until the oats are tender and the mixture is creamy.
  4. Remove from heat and let the oatmeal sit for about 1 minute to thicken slightly.
  5. Spoon into bowls and finish with your choice of toppings: sliced almonds for crunch, extra diced apple for freshness, or raisins for sweetness.

Notes

Rolled oats are recommended for this quick stovetop texture. You can use quick oats in a pinch or adjust cooking time for steel-cut oats. Experiment with different plant milks for various creaminess levels.
