Cooking
  1. Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

  4. Add 1/2 cup rolled oats and 1 cup almond milk to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are cooked and the mixture thickens.
  6. Spoon the oatmeal into a bowl. Top with reserved apples, 1 tbsp almond butter, and 1 tbsp maple syrup.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

This oatmeal bowl is best served warm right after cooking. Adjust maple syrup for extra sweetness. Can switch apple for pears. Add toppings like nuts or seeds for crunch.
