- 1 cup Oats (Rolled Oats)
- 1 cup Whole Milk (Nut milk is fine too)
- 1 cup Water
- 1 stick Cinnamon (You can use cinnamon powder )
- 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 1 tbsp Hemp Seeds
- 1/2 medium Apple (Grated)
- 1 tbsp Coconut Flakes (Optional)
- Toppings and Mix-ins of choice - (I used Peanut butter, honey and banana)
Add milk and water to pot
Add oats, chia seeds and Hemp seeds
Turn on heat to medium-high and stir occasionally for about 5 minutes.
Add in grated apples and stir all together. Reduce heat and let it gentle simmer for about 3-5 minutes. If oatmeal becomes thicker than what you'd like it to be, add in extra milk or water to thin it out to your desire consistency.
Remove pot from heat. Serve with any of your favorite toppings. Banana and Peanut butter are toppings suggestions. You may also use berries, grapes, almond and anything you desire. Enjoy!!
