Steel Cut Oats with Cinnamon Apples - Phase 1

Comfort food for breakfast. Perfect for a cold morning. 

Soak your steel cut oats in water overnight. However many portions you need. 
The next morning, drain and rinse with clear water.

Heat oven to 400 degrees. 

Chop your apples. I like honeycrisp or Granny Smith. Use enough for the portions you're making. I leave the peel on. Chop small, so they cook faster. Place in a baking dish, sprinkle with 1/4 tsp cinnamon per apple. Add sweetener, if you want. Stir. Place in preheated oven and bake just until soft, maybe 10-15 minutes. 

Put the soaked oats in a saucepan, cover with fresh water. Add a pinch of salt. Simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes, until done. Stir in a splash of vanilla, a pinch of stevia or xylitol. 
Put your oats in a bowl and top with apples. 
Delish!! 

You can use peaches or pears if you want.
