Ingredients

  • rolled oats (dry) — 50g
  • semi-skimmed milk — 250ml
  • Granny Smith apple — 1 medium
  • ground cinnamon — 0.5 tsp
  • honey — 1 tsp

Method

  1. 1

    Place the rolled oats and semi-skimmed milk into a small saucepan.

  2. 2

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  3. 3

    While the oats cook, coarsely grate the apple, discarding the core.

  4. 4

    Once the oats have thickened to your desired consistency (about 5-7 minutes), stir in half of the grated apple and the ground cinnamon.

  5. 5

    Remove from the heat and transfer to a serving bowl.

  6. 6

    Top with the remaining fresh grated apple and drizzle with the honey before serving.

Why this works

The natural tartness of the Granny Smith apple cuts through the creamy, earthy richness of the oats, while the warming cinnamon ties the floral notes of the honey and the fruit together.
