Sautee: While oatmeal cooks on the stove top heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a touch of butter or cooking spray to pan. Once melted add apple chunks.

Season: Once oatmeal has been cook season with brown sugar and sprinkle on top additional cinnamon.
Combine: Top oatmeal with warm sauteed apples and finish with chopped pecans or any other nuts you have on hand.
