Start by adding about 1-2 cups of water to a pan, enough to cover the bottom by a little less than an inch.

Add whole rolled oats to the pan, using enough for two people.

Add butter to taste, or substitute with canola oil or vegetable oil if preferred.

Add salt to the oats.

Peel an apple and chop it to add to the oats; you can also use other dried fruits like raisins or cranberries.

Add cinnamon to the mixture.

Boil the mixture until it reaches a thick soup consistency, adjusting the temperature as needed.

Once boiling, turn off the heat and let it sit for 10 minutes to steam.

After 10 minutes, check the consistency of the oats; they should not be runny but have a thick texture.

Optionally, drizzle with maple syrup or mix in brown sugar before steaming.
