Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Start your morning off right with this clean eating apple pie oatmeal recipe!

Few things are as American as apple pie. Except maybe…. oatmeal.

As clean eaters, we’ve all seen our share of oatmeal in the mornings. Heck, we’ve probably seen our share at other times during the day as well. I mean, let’s face it. It’s a quick and healthy dish that travels well. You can’t beat it. Sweet or savory, oatmeal is awesome stuff.

So I thought I would try to combine two of this great country’s meal time traditions. What I got was a really wonderful, comforting bowl of delicious oats.

Honest to goodness, I thought I was eating apple pie for breakfast! It had the perfect amount of sweet and spice and made my tummy very happy. Comfort food at it’s best!

  2. Do you think I could do this in my crockpot overnight? My DH leaves for work sometimes at 4 in the morning and I try to find things I can make the night before for him to eat breakfast before he leaves so he doesn’t stop at the gas station and fill up on pop and donuts.

  9. Dani – Yes, you could use traditional rolled oats. Steel cut oats are like Irish Oatmeal. It’s the way the whole oats are cut.

  12. Jennifer – As long as it’s JUST honey, you can buy whatever type you like. Some people prefer raw honey, but it doesn’t have to be. Honey doesn’t necessarily need a label because it’s just honey.

  18. I always do this recipe in the crock pot and it’s delicious! I do 2 cups oats, 2 cups coconut milk & 3 cups water. On low for 3-4 hours. It’s amazing!

    Reply

    • Pretty close, yes. Cooking times may vary a bit. I would try it once while you’re home to watch it to be sure.

  20. I’ve long been adding an apple and cinnamon to my steel cut oats, no honey needed. Never thought to add allspice though, that might be an extra yummy kick! Thanks!!

    Reply

  21. I do this in the crockpot overnight. 4 Cups of water to 1 cup of steel cut oats. I add the apple, honey and spices in the morning before serving. Super easy and great for a cold, early morning!

  24. This is the second recipe for oats that I’ve tried (also tried the pumpkin pie oats)…maybe I’m doing something wrong because I can’t get them to taste like anything, much less apple or pumpkin pie! I don’t really care for oats to begin with because they’re so bland. Maybe I’m just too used to the pre-packaged sugar-laden ones that I can’t adjust. Any suggestions?

    Reply

    • Hmmm… Maybe add more spices and honey? Give it some time if you are new to clean eating. Your taste buds will adjust.

  26. Rolled. I’m also using Australian measurements, so not sure if they offer from us measurements

    Thanks for replying! I really appreciate that you read the comments.

    Reply

    • Ahhh, yes. That would do it. I’ll be hopefully adding metric measurements to my recipes in the near future.

  29. Me and my kids are eating this right now and it’s AWESOME!! Most of my kids won’t eat oatmeal but every one of them (all 8 who are of oatmeal-eating age) are devouring it! Thank you so much for this great recipe!

    Reply

    • Mrs. Sara Coller – 8 children!!! My hat goes off to you. I hardly manage with 1 some days! Glad they all enjoyed it. 🙂

      Reply

  32. I subscribe to ZipList and found your recipe through it. Are you supposed to include the apples, cinnamon, allspice and honey while cooking? Or add them after the oatmeal is cooked?

    Reply

    • Angie – You add them during cooking. I’ve updated the recipe to reflect that. I hope you enjoy it!

      Reply

  33. How does this hold up to reheating in a microwave? I’m thinking I could make it at night and then get two mornings of breakfasts out of it. I get to work early and generally eat at my desk.

    Thanks!

    Reply

  34. I tried your recipe for overnight oatmeal and loved it! My children didn’t like it, so I’m going to give this one a try overnight.

    Reply

  35. I’ve been making and eating this recipe at least twice a week for the past month. Sometimes i’ll add a quarter cup of currants when I cook it and sweeten it a tiny bit more in the bowl with maple syrup. Oh my gosh, I really look forward to this breakfast. And it smells so good while it’s cooking! =)

    Reply

  36. This is an awesome recipe! I am new to clean eating and your website has been SO helpful! I love coming on and looking for new ideas on how to make recipes clean =) this recipe was delish!

    Reply

  38. When you say “honey to taste” what do you usually start with? I am not an oatmeal fan, and am trying really hard to do more clean eating so I want to find recipes that I like to start with. Thanks

    Reply

  40. Just wanted to share a tip about apples for the lady asking which apples to use: while some are more sweet, and some are more tart, and you may prefer one type or another, when it comes to selecting apples? Simply tap them very lightly with the back of your finger like you are very, very lightly flicking someone’s ear. Listen to various apples. The higher the pitch, the better the apple. Same with watermelons…….

    Now, it’s time to put steel cut oats back on the shopping list.

    I can hardly wait to have some of this ‘porridge’…… (sorry, it’s the part of me that still loves Goldilocks and the Three Bears…… *blush*)!

  42. than you for posting this! i love it! this is my first time leaving a review, I just had to. Easy and delicious. makes clean eating that much more enjoyable. Definitely going to check out more of the site =).

  43. Thank you for the recipe, so yummy! I added quite a bit more cinnamon as I like a strong cinnamon-y flavor, but I love the components and enjoyed it very much.

    Reply

  44. Made this morning with gluten-free oatmeal. It was delicious and easy to make. I doubled the recipe so, I have leftovers for tomorrow too. Yummy! The husband loved it! 🙂

    Reply

  45. I just made this, and I am absolutely in love with it. Although, I skipped the allspice, I followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Thanks

    Reply

  46. In the past before seeing this recipie I have always made the apple pie oatmeal with just one cup of water and it seemed to be pretty good. So does the 2 cups of water make it watery? How does the extra cup affect its taste?

    I just don’t want to end up with a really watery oatmeal apple pie.

    I love this recipie so much that I make it every other day for breakfast. 🙂

    Reply

  47. I’ll be making this tomorrow, can hardly wait. And, I’m sorry but on the notes you said that the honey makes this dish, what honey? There’s no honey in the ingredient list. Did I miss something?

    Reply

  48. i love to print out recipes – however, i’d like it on one or two pages of paper – i just printed your apple oatmeal recipe and it took 4 sheets of paper – really upsetting!
