APPLE CINNAMON OATMEAL



Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal image

A wonderful, warm, soothing way to wake up in the morning. So full of flavor, you'll be wanting more. When making this, I never measured the amount of cinnamon, nutmeg, or sugars I used so add more or use less to taste...it's up to you.

APPLE CINNAMON OATMEAL - WW POINTS 4.5



Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal - Ww Points 4.5 image

I don't recall where I got this recipe and how much I've done to it to change it for my own liking. However, I eat this almost every morning. I haven't grown tired of it and it is so good. For those who aren't fans of "traditionally" prepared oatmeal, this is quick, easy and best of all NOT GOOEY! I can't stand gooey salty oatmeal. I use individual packs of apple sauce. Mostly because after opening regular apple sauce, you have to refrigerate it. Since the apple sauce in this recipe is added after it's cooked, it can make the oatmeal slightly cold if it's from the jar in the fridge. I have tried adding the apple sauce and cooking it with the oatmeal and milk, it didn't turn out that great. Make sure to use unsweetened apple sauce to keep within point range. I am not sure how much the regular apple sauce will raise the points. This tastes great with or without added sweetener. I use unsweetened because I can control the sugar/sweetness that way. Enjoy!! WW Points - 4.5

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1/2 cup low-fat milk
4 ounces unsweetened applesauce (I use the individual packs, exact measurement)
1/2 ounce raisins (one minibox)
cinnamon, to taste
1 (1 g) packet Splenda sugar substitute (2 tsp of sugar will raise points by .5)

Steps:

  • Combine oatmeal and milk in microwave safe bowl. Give it a quick stir to make sure oats are covered. Make sure the bowl is wide or deep enough so the oatmeal does not overflow (I've had this happen). Put it into the microwave for 3 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from microwave. Add apple sauce, raisins, cinnamon and splenda (optional). Mix it all together. The oatmeal may be stiff until the apple sauce is incorporated.

CATHY'S APPLE CINNAMON HUNGER FIGHTING OATMEAL



Cathy's Apple Cinnamon Hunger Fighting Oatmeal image

It's hard to get the kids out of the carb rut for breakfast. This is a filling, protein & fiber rich oatmeal that keeps them full until lunch. Leftovers are even great cold, or make up a big pot the night before and place in individual bowls for a quick breakfast in the morning! I created this myself and have made numerous variations of it, and this is the one my kids ask for over and over! For the sake of good health, it's not a real sweet oatmeal. If you or your kids require a sweeter taste, add more maple syrup or top with brown sugar at the table. You could top each serving with sliced almonds instead of stirring in the chopped walnuts. In fact, I prefer it that way, but I have one daughter who won't eat the protein rich nuts unless they're hidden! I recently made this for guests with only one medium apple (that's all we had in the house), and this fed two children and 3 adults a good hearty breakfast. The kids had seconds, so I estimate the recipe to be about 6 servings. Cooking time is an estimate, depending on how soft you like your apples.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 apples (medium to large sized, I like to use Braeburn, Jonagold, or Gala)
1 cup water (approximate(just enough to cover the apples in the kettle)
2 cups old fashioned oats
3 1/2 cups milk (I use skim)
1/2-1 cup dried fruit (raisins, dried cranberries, dried cherries, etc, or a combination)
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1/8 cup real maple syrup (NOT maple flavored pancake syrup)
1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon (1 teaspoon is a lot of cinnamon, use less if you aren't cinnamon nuts like we are)
brown sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Core and chop apples into small, bite-sized cubes. Peel if you wish. I leave the skins on (more fiber), but if the texture bothers you, peel apples first.
  • Simmer apples in water over medium heat until tender. Time varies depending on the type of apple and how tender you like them. I generally cook them until very tender, but if you want more recognizeable pieces of apple in the finished oatmeal, leave a little more firm. Add a little more water if the pan cooks dry.
  • Add the dried fruit about half way through cooking the apples in order to soften and rehydrate. (If you forget, just cover them with a little water and microwave them a few seconds before adding to the apples).
  • Add oats and milk, bring just to a simmer, reduce heat, and slowly cook until thick, taking care to stir occasionally and scrape the bottom of the pan. Since this is old fashioned oatmeal, this will take at least five minutes.
  • Once the oatmeal is cooked and thick, remove from heat and stir in nuts, syrup, and cinnamon.
  • Let stand five minutes. Place in individual serving bowls. Thin & cool with a little milk and sweeten with brown sugar or more maple syrup, if desired.
  • Enjoy!
