Hello everybody!
Apple oatmeal is my favourite twist on plain oatmeal. I love the taste of apple and cinnamon and this is one of my favourite winter breakfasts, full of nutrients and ideal to keep you fully energised throughout the morning.
Oatmeal nutritional information:
Oats are a whole grain cereal high in fiber, especially beta-glucan, and are high in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Oats have several health benefits, such as lowering blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
One serving (30 grams) of oats contains 117 calories and by weight raw oats are 66% carbohydrates (good carbs), 17% protein, 7% fat and 11% fiber.
My recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 Apple, peeled and chopped
- 3 Table spoons of oatmeal (less than half cup)
- Half cup of almond milk
- Half cup of water
- 3 Nuts cut in smaller pieces
- 1 coffee spoon of linseed
- A few sunflower seeds
- Cinnamon to taste
- Honey (optional) – I don’t use honey or any type of sweetener
Recipe:
- Place the milk and water in a saucepan.
- Add the oats and let them absorb the liquid while you chop the apple.
- Chop the apple into small, thin chunks.
- Add the apple to the oats and heat the mixture until boiling.
- Add the nuts, sunflower seeds, linseed and cinnamon (I use a lot of cinnamon 🙂
- Let it cook for 3 minutes and add more water if necessary.
- Top the oatmeal with some berries and enjoy!
Stay beautiful,
J
