Happy Fall, officially.

I wore long sleeves for the first time yesterday while Dan and I walked around Old Town Alexandria for a Wellness + Fitness Festival and when the wind picked up on the waterfront I felt that deep sense of renewal that comes with changing seasons.

Also that stubborn resilience of the human condition.

Chilly weather, come at me, I’m wearing a long sleeved shield, yo.

Other things that make me feel nourished and warm on colder mornings (like today– 59 degrees and rainy!) are big bowls of warm oatmeal.

I enjoyed overnight oats all summer long for a quick grab and go breakfast, but now I’m ready to stand over the stove top for a few to get warm, how about you?

These Apple Butter Stovetop Oats are the perfect naturally sweet fall breakfast to keep the chill out and the cheer in.

This fresh fall mix of seasonal apples, dried fruit, nuts, and seeds comes together in just 10 minutes to fuel your day!

If you’ve been hanging out here for a while, you know that I LOVE me some apple butter for fall (and all year round).

When we visited my extended family in Indiana, my aunt always handed us jars of homemade apple butter in Ball canning jars.

After when we twisted its pop top open at home, that sweet golden brown spread always went way. too. fast.

Once I started grocery shopping for myself, I sought out a store-bought apple butter alternative so I didn’t have to rely on my aunt’s cute little jars all year round.

I stumbled upon this Eden Foods Organic Apple Butter and immediately fell in love with it because this sweet spread is free of any sugar or additives.

It’s just apples, guys!

Each glass jar has four pounds of apples and a small amount of our organic apple juice concentrate simmered down the sweet perfection.

It’s perfect for spreading onto toast, waffles, pancakes, yogurt, or of course…oatmeal.

You’re going to love this hearty oatmeal lightly sweetened with real fruit and a big spoonful of apple butter!

Here’s what you need:

  • gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats
  • unsweetened almond milk
  • chia seeds
  • sweet apple
  • Eden Foods Organic Apple Butter
  • ground cinnamon

That’s it!

These Apple Butter Stovetop Oats aren’t for the fall faint of heart, friends.

Each breakfast bowl is packed with protein and fiber from the oatmeal and chia base plus more protein boost from the nut and seed topping.

Add diced apple straight into the oatmeal mixture to create more of an apple pie feel, or omit the apple entirely if you’d prefer your oats to be smooth.

For toppings, here’s what I suggest:

  • Eden Foods Pumpkin Seeds
  • Eden Foods Roasted Almonds
  • Eden Foods Dried Wild Blueberries
  • Eden Foods Dried Cranberries
  • nut or seed butter

Find a mix that works for you!

These Apple Butter Stovetop Oats are perfect for to fuel for your fall day!

I love mine with a lot of texture on top in the form of roasted nuts and seeds and sweet dried fruit.

Try adding a drizzle of peanut or almond butter while the oatmeal is still warm and stir it in for extra healthy fats and protein.

Double or triple the recipe to serve more or enjoy this breakfast solo.

I love enjoying a bowl as a quick and nutritious workweek breakfast.

Enjoy!

Description

Easy apple butter stovetop oats sweetened with apple butter and dressed up for fall with a crunchy seed and nut blend. Perfect for an easy breakfast.


Ingredients

APPLE BUTTER STOVETOP OATS

  • 1/2 cup gluten-free old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tsp chia seeds
  • 1/2 sweet apple, diced into small squares (optional)
  • 1–2 TBSP Eden Foods Organic Apple Butter
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

TOPPINGS:

  • 1 TBSP Eden Foods Pumpkin Seeds
  • 1 TBSP Eden Foods Roasted Almonds
  • 1 TBSP Eden Foods Dried Wild Blueberries
  • 1 TBSP Eden Foods Dried Cranberries
  • 1 TBSP nut butter (optional but recommended!)

Instructions

  1. Add the oats, almond milk, chia seeds, cinnamon, and diced apple to a saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a low-boil, then reduce heat to medium/ medium low and simmer for 10 minutes, until all of the oats have absorbed all of the almond milk and the apples are soft and tender. Add more almond milk as needed to reach desired consistency.
  2. Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of apple butter and taste to reach desired sweetness. I like to add 1 tablespoon directly to the oats and another tablespoon as a topping.
  3. Add to a bowl immediately and top with pumpkin seeds, roasted almonds, dried blueberries, dried cranberries, and a spoonful of nut butter.

    This was really good. We had bought no sugar added apple butter for another recipe and this was perfect in oatmeal. We do not consume any sugar products but fruit is Ok. Thanks for the recipe.

Hi, I'm Lauren!
You can find me in the kitchen making healthy and creative plant-based dishes with whole foods, on my yoga mat stretching it out, or curled up with a good book and a glass of red. Searching for balanced living in an unbalanced world. I live it, eat it, drink it, write it, photograph it, and share it all here.

Pizza date night tonight? 🙋‍♀️This VEGGIE Pizza date night tonight? 🙋‍♀️This VEGGIE LOVER’S FLATBREAD PIZZA is new on the blog today! 🍕In the post I share how M and I have never been on a *real* date and how we make up for that by doing dinner date-night ins. One of our favorite things to make together lately is homemade plant-based pizza! 😄 This vegan and grain-free pizza is made easily with @bobsredmill NEW Grain-Free Flatbread Mix! I love this new flatbread mix, guys!!! You can make it vegan easily with a flax egg. Bake it up then add pizza sauce, vegan cheese, and your fav toppings for a fun plant-based pizza night in! ☺️
-
You can make the recipe into one large pizza or two smaller personal pizzas (which is what we typically do so we can go wild with our own toppings). I went traditional veggie lover’s with mine but you can add any toppings that sound good. I’m a huge pineapple pizza lover whereas M thinks pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza. 🤣 Grab the full recipe via the link in my profile and let me know what you think!
