- 2 cups spring water or filtered tap water (I sometimes use 1 cup of water and 1 cup of 100 percent apple juice.)
- 1 cup rolled oats
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 apple (Maine McIntosh is my favorite, in season), cut into cubes
Optional: Top with other fresh fruit, such as delicious wild Maine blueberries and / or toasted sunflower seeds, which add a little protein.
Put water in a pan on high heat and add sea salt, oatmeal, and apples (if using). Bring to a boil, turn to low and simmer uncovered 8-10 minutes. You may add more water if needed for desired consistency anytime during cooking.
Turn off heat and cover. Serve topped with fresh fruit if desired. Serves 2.
