Apple Pie Oatmeal

We've been eating oatmeal for breakfast daily for a few months now. This was a fun variation on it, and was perfect for a cold winter morning, plus it makes the house smell heavenly! Shaun prefers this without the nutmeg, but I am a big fan of lots of spice.

• 1 apple, cored and chopped (skins on)
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup quick cooking oats
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
• Dash of salt

1. Bring the water and chopped apple to a boil in a small saucepan. 
2. Mix oats, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a bowl. When the water comes a boil, add the oats, apple, cinnamon, and nutmeg. 
3. Adjust heat to low and simmer for 3-4 minutes while stirring. 
4. Serve it with a splash of milk and a little (or a lot) of brown sugar sprinkled on top. Mmm!
