Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Organic, Gluten Free, Sprouted Oats
  • 1/2 cup Filtered Water
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder or Collagen I add both!
  • 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 Organic Gala Apple
  • 2 tsp Coconut Oil
  • 1 tbsp Ceylon Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cloves
  • 1/2 Ripe Banana
  • Unlimited Toppings! See Notes for Topping Ideas!
  • Splash Dairy Free Milk I use unsweetened coconut milk

Instructions
 

  • Add the oats and filtered water to a small pot and cook on medium heat. Reduce heat if it begins to boil. You want the pot of oats to be just below a simmer. You have to stir often to ensure they do not stick to the bottom of the pot. The oats are done when there is no water left in the pot.
  • Add chia seeds, collagen and/or protein powder to the pot of oats.
  • Warm a cast iron pan with coconut oil. Dice the apple and add to a bowl with all of the spices. Toss the apples in the spices until fully coated. Once coated, add to the cast iron pan and allow to cook for 3-5 minutes. Stir occasionally. Cook for less time to make the apples crispier or cook for longer to make the apples softer.
  • Mash a half banana in a bowl and add cooked oats and sauteed spiced apples to the bowl.
  • Add your favorite toppings and a splash of your dairy free milk.
  • Mix together and enjoy!
