- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup water or milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 small apple, diced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon caramel sauce (plus extra for topping)
- 1 teaspoon butter or coconut oil (optional)
- Combine the rolled oats, water or milk, diced apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the oats are creamy and the liquid is mostly absorbed.
- Stir in the butter or coconut oil, if using, and the 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce until well combined.
- Pour the oatmeal into a bowl.
- Drizzle extra caramel sauce over the top before you enjoy.
Notes
- You can use quick oats, but adjust the cooking time.
- For extra richness, use whole milk or heavy cream instead of water.
- Add a handful of chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.
- If you prefer a thicker caramel flavor, add a small dash of vanilla extract with the caramel sauce.
