Cook this recipe
- unsweetened oat milk-3 cups
- apples-2 medium
- old-fashioned rolled oats-1.5 cups
- water-1 cup
- walnut halves-0.5 cups
- maple syrup-3 tablespoons
- ground cinnamon-1 teaspoon
- vanilla extract-1 teaspoon
- fine salt-0.25 teaspoons
Core and dice the apples, then measure the oats, oat milk, water, cinnamon, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt for smooth cooking.
Keep fingers clear of the knife while coring and dicing the apples.
Add the walnut halves to a dry skillet over medium heat and toast for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant and lightly browned. Transfer to a bowl.
Use the dry skillet handle with care, as it may become hot during toasting.
Combine the oat milk, water, diced apples, cinnamon, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook for 3 minutes to soften the apples.
Stir in the old-fashioned rolled oats, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until the oatmeal is creamy and tender.
Use caution when stirring hot oatmeal, as it can bubble and splatter.
Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla, remove from the heat, and let stand for 2 minutes so the oatmeal thickens slightly.
Divide into bowls, top with the toasted walnuts, and serve warm.
Check for walnut allergies before serving.
