Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Having a delicious yet balanced breakfast is one of the best things you can do for your body! This oatmeal recipe is one way to get in the perfect combination of protein, fats, and carbohydrates to fuel your day. Not only will you get plenty of sustained energy and vitamins from the oats and apples, but you will certainly feel satisfied and satiated with the nuts paired in this meal! Oatmeal is a great way to use your creativity, and you can use a different combination of fruits, yogurts, nuts, seeds, natural sweeteners, and spices to get the best flavours and nutrients. This combo of apples, walnuts, and cinnamon most certainly reminds me of having warm apple pie on a fall day!
