Apple Pie??? .... Sorta


You know you wants some....
The Breakfast Saga continues with Apple Pie Oats.... what to do tomorrow?

Ingredients

1/4 cup oats

OK. THIS TIME, we cook the apples first :)
Melt the butter, then add the sugar and apples and let it cook for about 5 minutes on medium low. Make sure the sugar/caramel doesn't burn

Once done, set this aside in a small bowl and cook the oats in the water/milk mixture.

Finally, fold the apples back into the cooked oats, plate and hide the white chocolate chips inside for a surprise.
