Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Porridge

Submitted by Chef #573662

"I for one like the flavoured porridges and this one is warm and tasty. Also an excellent way for the kids to start their day and a perfect way to keep some money in your pocket on grocery day. Tastes pretty darn close to the packaged oatmeal on your grocers shelves."

The recipe was reduced to 2 servings and a combination of apple juice and water were used. The juice and apple add plenty of sweetness. This is a nice and healthy breakfast.
