Ingredients

• 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 2 cups Water
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 medium Apple (peeled and diced)
• 0.25 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Walnuts (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 cup Milk (optional, for serving)
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Bring 2 cups of water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Stir in 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Add the diced apple, 1/4 cup of raisins, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the saucepan. Continue to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oats are creamy and the apples are tender.

Step 4

While the oatmeal is cooking, prepare the honey-toasted walnuts. Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts. Toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.

Step 5

Drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey over the walnuts in the skillet and stir to coat evenly. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the honey caramelizes slightly around the walnuts. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Step 6

Once the oatmeal is done, divide it evenly between two bowls. Top each bowl with an equal amount of the honey-toasted walnuts.

Step 7

If desired, drizzle with additional maple syrup and add a splash of milk for extra creaminess. Serve warm and enjoy!
