Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

This morning I made some seriously delicious oatmeal. It was really fast and easy too. I know apples are a BIG no-no, but cooking them seems to aid in digestion (and I haven't had an apple in over 2 months and was really craving one). Has anyone else found that cooked fruits and veggies are easier to digest? This makes sense to me for IBS but not Fructose Malabsorption. I'll have to do some more research on this.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup quick cooking oats
• 1 cup almond milk
• 1 apple sliced into small chunks (remove peel for even easier digestion)
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 2 tbsp butter of choice
• 1/2 tsp white sugar
• 1 tsp maple syrup
• 1-1/2 tsp cinnamon

Cook apple in skillet with butter, cinnamon, and sugar until almost soft. Add in raisins and simmer with apple mixture until apples are soft all the way through. Combine oats, maple syrup, and almond milk in a small pot and cook on medium, stirring frequently, until desired consistency is reached. Top oatmeal with apple mixture and enjoy!
