What is Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal?

“Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal is a warm breakfast made with oats, apples, milk, and spices. I cook steel-cut oats until soft and creamy. The taste reminds me of homemade apple pie, and my favorite part is the incredible smell of cinnamon and vanilla. It is healthy, fiber-rich, and gives me perfect morning energy.”

How I Make It (Step-by-Step)

Melt Butter

I start by melting a tablespoon of halal butter in a large cooking pot.

Toast Oats

I add the steel-cut oats and lightly toast them for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Simmer

I carefully add hot water and let it cook slowly on low heat.

Add Fruit

I mix in my chopped apples and all the cozy spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice).

Combine Liquids

I pour in the milk, alcohol-free vanilla, salt, and maple syrup.

Thicken

I cook the mixture until it becomes thick, soft, and creamy.

Rest & Serve

I turn off the heat, let it rest for 5 minutes, then top with walnuts.

My Helpful Tips

I always use fresh apples for the best flavor and texture.

Stir the pot often to stop the oats from sticking to the bottom.

Add an extra splash of milk if you want your oatmeal creamier.

I adjust the maple syrup amount based on my own taste preferences.

How I Serve It

Serve warm in a deep bowl for a cozy feeling.

Add fresh apple slices on top for a professional look.

Sprinkle extra cinnamon for a stronger, spicier flavor.

Top with extra walnuts or seeds if you need more crunch.

❄ Freezing Guide “I divide the oatmeal into small containers and freeze for up to 1 month. I thaw it overnight in the fridge and add a little milk when reheating to refresh the texture.”
