Ingredients
  1. Apple Pie Filling
  2. 4 medium baking apples, peeled, cored and cut into chunks (see note #1)
  3. 2 tbsp lemon juice
  4. 1/3 cup coconut sugar (you can also use brown sugar)
  5. 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  6. 1 tsp ground cardamom
  7. 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  8. 1 cup water
  9. 1 to 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch (depending on how thick you want the filling to be)
  10. Oats (quantity for a single serve!)
  11. 1/2 cup oats (your favorite kind)
  12. 1/2 cup almond milk (or your favorite kind of milk)
  13. 1 tsp maple syrup (more or less to taste)
  14. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
  1. Mix apples, lemon juice, sugar, spices and water in a large skillet. Bring water to a boil then reduce to medium-low, cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring from time to time. Dissolve cornstarch with about 1/3 cup water and add to the apples. Stir and cook for about 3 minutes or until liquid has thickened. [Some apples are very juicy and some are less, so if you find that there's not enough liquid, add a little bit more water; and if it's too juicy, add a little bit more cornstarch (diluted in water before)]. Transfer to a container, allow to cool and set aside until ready to use. It will keep up to a week in the fridge.
  2. The night before, place 1/2 cup oats in a jar. Mix together milk, maple and vanilla and pour over oats. Stir, close with a lid and store in the fridge overnight. Repeat for more servings.
  3. In the morning, stir oats again. At this point, you can add more milk to taste. Top with 1/4th of apple pie filling per serving. If you like you oats warm, reheat them in the microwave for about one minute. Enjoy!
Notes
  1. I like to use a mix of different apples for a complex flavor. For this recipe, I used 2 red delicious, 1 royal gala and 1 green smith.
