Serves 1

  • 1 cup non-dairy milk alternative

Grate the apple and place it in a serving bowl. Squeeze a little lemon juice over it and grate the cinnamon on top.

Place the oats and milk into a small saucepan over medium low heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the oatmeal is fully cooked.
