Welcome to this month's event in Foodie Extravaganza {Party}. Our theme is Apples and our Host is Kelley Meyer . Thank you for hosting this months event.

This is a very healthy and delicious breakfast, serve this your kids and they too will love it.

Serves 2
Ingredients
¾ Cup Oats
1 Medium Apples - peeled & chopped
¼ Cup Jaggery -  grated
1/8 Teaspoon Cinnamon or Cardamom powder
A Pinch of Salt
1 Tablespoon Vegetable Shortening

Method

Melt vegetable shortening in a pan and saute the oats for a minute or two. Add 4 cups water and bring to a boil. Now add in the jaggery and salt. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, keep stirring in between or else it will burn at the bottom.

 Then add the  apple pieces and  cook  the apple on low flame until it softens a little. Keep the apples slightly crunchy ( do not overcook them). Switch  off the  flame , add cinnamon or cardamom powder, I used cinnamon flavor since apple and cinnamon complement each other.  

Enjoy this warm, a hearty, light and healthy breakfast to begin your day with.
