Directions
Combin the water, chopped apple, and cranberries in a pot and bring it to a boil. Let it cook for about 5 minutes until the cranberries pop and the apple pieces soften. Turn the heat down to medium, then stir in the oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Keep stirring as it cooks for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the oats soak up the liquid and the mixture thickens nicely. Once it's ready, spoon the oatmeal into bowls and sprinkle some walnuts on top for a little crunch. Enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm topped with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness. A sprinkle of chopped nuts or a dollop of yogurt can add extra texture and richness. Pair it with a cup of tea or coffee for a complete morning treat.
How To Freeze This Dish
Let the oatmeal cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. It can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or microwave, adding a splash of milk or water to loosen the texture if needed.
