    Core and coarsely grate the apple, then keep a few thin slices back for the top.

  3. Step 3

    Simmer the porridge

    Simmer for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring often, until the oats are creamy and thick enough to briefly hold a spoon trail.

    6 min
  4. Step 4

    Bring it together

    Stir through most of the grated apple for the final minute so the fruit warms but keeps some texture.

  5. Step 5

    Finish and serve

    Spoon into bowls, loosen with a splash of milk if needed, then finish with honey and the reserved apple slices and a little extra cinnamon.
