Apple 'n' Oats

I have made this twice in the past week! It is very versatile. I used coconut oil and cashew milk the first time and butter with whole milk the 2nd time. Both were equally delicious! I have enjoyed many oatmeal recipes, including baked oatmeal, but this "fried apple" oatmeal recipe is my favorite oatmeal recipe of all time!!! My husband really liked it too and asked me to whip up a batch for dessert after supper tonight! A sincere thank you for sharing this great recipe!

Great recipe, my little ones gave it 10 stars!!!! I used slow cooking oats, and soaked them for 12 hrs to make them more digestible, then drained them really well. I used coconut oil in place of the butter, and chopped the apples really fine (my picky son doesn't like "stuff" in his oatmeal) I used 2 tbsps of maple syrup in place of brown sugar and cooked the apples well before adding the oats and milk. I didn't really measure the oats or the milk. I think I used closer to 2/3 cup of oats, and just added the milk until it was the right consistency. We topped each bowl with a little more syrup and my kids gobbled it up. It was just enough to serve 2 preschoolers. I've been looking for a home made oatmeal to replace the pre-packaged stuff I've been using. This recipe is a winner, thanks so much for posting it :D:D

This was great! My apples were leftovers, so they were already sliced & cooked in some cinn & Splenda, so the hard part was done! I didn't use any brown sugar but did add some more cinn. For a snack just for me, I used 1/4 cup rolled oats & 1/3 cup milk-I like my oatmeal creamy but not too thin! Instead of nuts, I added some raisins & made it a little too sweet by adding a Splenda pkt-it didn't really need it! Topped it with some vanilla yogurt & a little sugar free maple syrup-a great treat! Thank u for sharing.

This was great and reminded me of the flavored oatmeal packages at the store, but with this one...you know what you are eating. I also liked that that I got a whole apple with my breakfast. I used regular oats (not quick) and it took about 4 minutes to cook. I also used a lot less than 1 tbsp butter, and it wasn't missed at all.

I just got done making this for my very picky 2 1/2 year old son, and he LOVED it! He ate 2 big helpings! I used Quick Cooking Oats and cooked the oatmeal in the microwave as the apples were cooking on the stovetop. I combined everything and added milk at the very end and it was a hit! Thanks!!
