This is a really quick and simple breakfast that makes your house smell like Yankee Candle. It’s one of my personal favorites on cold mornings, when I need something to warm me up. It also makes a great dessert because it tastes like apple pie!

- I apple
- cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin pie spice
Directions
- Chop the apple into bite size pieces
- sauté in a pan on medium heat for about 5 minutes with some coconut oil and any combination of the above spices (no measuring necessary), occasionally stirring.
Pumpkin cinnamon oatmeal:
Oatmeal tends to get a reputation as boring and bland. Well I’m determined to change that! There are endless ways to spice up a traditional hot breakfast. The best thing is that you don’t need to measure anything! I purposely don’t put measurements on any of the ingredients here because you should decide how much of each ingredient you want.
Ingredients:
- Irish steel cut oats
- cinnamon
- maple syrup
- pumpkin spice
- walnuts
- slivered almonds
- almond milk
- pumpkin seeds
Directions:
- Cook steel cut Irish oats (or instant oats if you prefer).
- Add in cinnamon, maple syrup, pumpkin spice, walnuts, slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds, almond milk.
