Rich, silky oats cook in a delicious, brown sugar cinnamon milk, are combined with a spiced-apple mixture then garnished with a honey walnut finish.
Spiced Apple Mixture Ingredients
Walnut Topping Ingredients
Start by making your walnut crisp topping. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet then add the chopped walnuts. Cook this until walnuts are golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
In that same pan, melt the remaining amount of butter, then add your peeled and diced apples to the skillet. Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, allspice and nutmeg over the apples. Stir to combine. Let this cook on on medium heat until the apples are tender.
In a separate saucepan, add the oats, milk, brown sugar and cinnamon, ground nutmeg and salt. Stir and bring pot over medium heat. Let this come to a soft boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for 5-7 minutes, or until oats are done.
Remove the pot from heat. Add chia seeds and half of the apple mixture to the oats. Stir to combine. Let it sit in the saucepan for 5 minutes.
Spoon a serving of oats into a bowl, then top with a scoop of the apple mixture, the walnuts and a drizzle of honey. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Storage - Store the remaining oatmeal in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can store the apples and walnuts separately, or assemble them with the oats into serving sized containers for the week.
You can also freeze the oatmeal for up to 3 months. Reheat on the stove with a splash of milk.
