Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Oats
Healthy Breakfast!
It’s officially almost the weekend, well, at least halfway through! On both Saturday and Sunday, I take the time to make a homemade hearty breakfast for my husband and I, giving us both time to catch up and enjoy each others company. I try to make healthier options for us and get creative in the process, which has actually become fun for me!
Using fresh ingredients, fruits, vegetables, healthy fats, and proteins are definitely a staple in creating dishes and I’m a huge advocate of incorporating coconut oil into my breakfast items.
Coconut oil is a healthy fat that contains medium chain triglycerides, which are a great source of natural energy – especially in the morning. You can add coconut oil to oatmeal, smoothies, fry eggs, or even mix in with coffee for an additional boost.
Oatmeal was always a staple for me growing up and I still enjoy eating it for breakfast. Plain oats can get boring, so this morning I decided to spice it up with steamed apples with coconut oil and cinnamon – yum! Quaker oats now have gluten-free quick oats, which have been amazing to add into my gluten-free diet.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients
Quaker Gluten Free Oats
2 Apples
1 Tablespoon Kelapo Coconut Oil
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
Maple Syrup, to taste
Directions
This recipe has also been a staple of mine during my pregnancy and I absolutely love to make this frittata with it for a source of protein!
Do you have a favorite way of dressing up your oats?
