Spiced Apple Oatmeal
October 24, 2014
Fall weather means (or almost) sweater weather. :)
However…it also means lots of heart-warming fall flavours aka cinnamon, nutmeg, apples, pumpkin, spice and everything nice!
So, I am sharing with you guys a heart-warming breakfast for a guaranteed great start to a chilly Fall day: spiced apple oatmeal. It basically tastes like a delicious APPLE PIE IN A BOWL but with a bit more spice (because I loooove cinnamon)! This recipe can be vegetarian and vegan friendly if you omit the egg whites.
The thing I love about oatmeal is that you can top them with whatever you want! I topped my spiced apple oatmeal with a dried fig, apple slices, granola, coconut, dark chocolate, almond butter and some almonds. If you really want...you could even sprinkle some more cinnamon on top!
Chow & Enjoy!

Spiced Apple Oatmeal
__________________________________________
Serves 1
1/3 cup almond milk
1/3 cup water
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/3 cup oats
1 apple (cut half of the apple into cubes)
2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
1 to 2 tbsp rainsins/sultanas
1 tsp natural vanilla extract
Optional:1/4 cup egg whites for some extra protein
1/3 cup water
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/3 cup oats
1 apple (cut half of the apple into cubes)
2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
1 to 2 tbsp rainsins/sultanas
1 tsp natural vanilla extract
Optional:1/4 cup egg whites for some extra protein
Pour almond milk and water into a pot. Stir in cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Bring the liquid and spices to a boil. Stir in oats, cubed apples and apple sauce. Turn the heat down to low and let the oats and apple cook for about 10-15 minutes or until they're fluffy and cooked. You can add a splash of almond milk if you like (to thin it out). After the oats are cooked and apple is soft, stir in raisins/sultanas, vanilla extract and egg whites (if using). Let it simmer for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the other half of the apple and use them to top off your oatmeal. Serve warm.
