Ingredients
1 cup steel cut oats
1 cup unsweetened apple sauce
3 cups water
1 large apple, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
2 teaspoons maple extract
Instructions
Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized pot and stir to combine.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally for 20-35 minutes. I pulled mine off after 25 minutes, and the oats were ''al dente''. For softer oatmeal, cook longer, adding additional cooking liquid if desired.
To Re-heat:
Add milk or additional liquid, if desired. Heat in the microwave until lightly heated (80% for 1 minute on my microwave).
