Frequently Asked Questions
Can I stew the apples in the same pot as the oats?
Yes, you can simmer the diced apples directly in the cooking liquid for two to three minutes before stirring in the oats, though cooking them separately keeps the apples distinct and jammy.
Which milk is best for easy digestion in this recipe?
Water or unsweetened non-fat milk alternatives such as almond milk or oat milk work well because they keep total fat content minimal.
