Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
½ tsp ground cinnamon
⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
2 cups water
½ cup whole milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened soy milk, measured 1:1. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in sauces, custards, and baked goods. For hot or acidic drinks, a barista-style soy milk resists curdling.
¼ tsp fine salt
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 tbsp maple syrup, plus more for serving
½ tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions

1
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy. Add the diced apple, cinnamon, and nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apple pieces are just tender and lightly golden at the edges, about 4–5 minutes.
2
Pour in the water and milk, add the salt, and bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
