- 2 to 4 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
- 2 sweet apples, cored and diced
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups old-fashioned / rolled oats

- Cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
- To a medium pot, add water, cider, optional maple syrup, apples and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium-low and add in the oats and cinnamon.

Notes
Quick oats can be substituted, but the texture will be slightly different and they won't need to be cooked for as long.
You can use any combination of water, milk and cider in this recipe, so long as the total is 3-½ cups.
Store meal prep or leftover oatmeal in a container and let it cool completely before placing the cover on.
