Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the water is boiling, stir in 1 cup of rolled oats and reduce the heat to medium.
Step 3
Let the oats cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed most of the water and are creamy for about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle in the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, stirring to combine them evenly with the oats.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract and salt, continuing to stir for an additional minute.
Step 6
Stir in the thinly sliced apple pieces and cook for another minute to slightly soften them.
Step 7
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for a minute or two to thicken to the desired consistency.
