Preparation
  1. In a medium-sized pot, combine the rolled oats, water or milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.
  2. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the diced apple and cinnamon. Stir well to combine.
  3. Cook the oatmeal mixture for about 5-10 minutes or until it reaches your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
  4. After cooking, remove the pot from heat. If desired, stir in brown sugar or honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
  5. Scoop the porridge into bowls and top with your favorite nuts, extra apple slices, or a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!

Notes

Feel free to experiment with quick oats for faster preparation. Substitute regular milk with almond, coconut, or oat milk for a dairy-free option. Use tart apples for balance or sweeter varieties for a treat. Stir occasionally to avoid clumping.
