Caramelized Apples
- 2 apples sliced and unpeeled
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 3 Tbsp water
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon
Oats
- ¾ cup steel cut oats regular or quick cooking or sub rolled oats
- 1 ¼ cups water
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp turmeric
- few grinds of black pepper
- 2 Tbsp peanut butter
- 1-2 Tbsp flaxseed meal
- ¾ cup blueberries frozen or fresh
In a large skillet (preferably non-stick) on medium heat, add everything under "Caramelized Apples" and stir to coat evenly. Cover with a lid and cook until apples are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add a splash more water if needed.
In a medium-sized pot, bring oats and water to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Add cinnamon, turmeric, and a few grinds of black pepper. See package directions for cook time.
When oats finish cooking, stir in peanut butter, flaxseed meal, and blueberries (cook a few minutes longer if frozen so oats don't get cold) then turn off heat. Taste, adding anything more it may need
Serve, topping with caramelized apples. Enjoy!
