Hello friends!  I am back today with a maple recipe getting us ready for the cooler mornings of the fall.  What is better than oatmeal on a chilly morning?  And of course, in our house, maple syrup is always a part of it as well.   And to make it a little extra special, why not add some sautéed apples?

Recipe – Maple Apple Oatmeal

Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 20 Minutes
Yield: 2 servings

For the apples:
¼ c butter
2 cup apples, chopped in tiny cubes (approximately 2 medium apples)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp Finding Home Farms Maple Syrup

For the oatmeal:
1.5 cups milk
1 cup old fashioned oats
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp ginger
1 tbsp Finding Home Farms Maple Syrup
¼ cup pecans, chopped
In a saucepan, combine milk, oats, spices and maple syrup. Bring to a boil.

Once oats are boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring the oatmeal every few minutes.

While oats are cooking, add apples to melted butter. Saute over low heat for 5-6 minutes until apples start to soften. Stir in cinnamon and maple syrup and saute for an additional 2 minutes.

Divide oatmeal into two separate bowls. Top with apple mixture, and additional maple syrup if desired.

It is that simple – and delicious.  I hope you enjoy making it, sharing it and eating it.

And that is not all.  I am joining with several friends to share other apple recipes, all hosted by the lovely Ella Claire.  Follow each of the links below for the recipes.
