Cinnamon oatmeal

Hey Guys

Sorry its been awhile. A lot has happened recently, I went on a few holidays and then I caught the flu which I am still recovering from! anyway Today I am going to share this lovely filling breakfast with you, it is quick and easy to make. I hope you enjoy it!

This is a perfect breakfast to have that is so satisfying, it will help tone down those nasty food cravings you get throughout the day.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup oats or quick oats
  • 1 cup water or milk of your choice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 table spoon or more of natural sweetener (you can use stevia or monk fruit sweetener)
  • 1 small apple chopped
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons low fat Greek yoghurt (optional)

Method
  1. In a small pot, pour in water and add oats, place on stove with a low heat so the oats don't cook up too fast and burn, but leave it to cook for a few seconds and Add the cinnamon and sweetener then stir everything all together, continue to stir till the oats are nice and creamy but make sure you don't burn the oats.
  2. Pour the cooked oats in a bowl and add your chopped apples and yoghurt on top and drizzle with honey.
To make this dish vegan just skip using honey and yoghurt. You can use soy milk or almond milk instead of water to give a more milky taste. Or if you have a vegan yoghurt, you can use that instead. You can also sprinkle some sweetener on top.
