Add the steel-cut oats and cook until fragrant, stirring often, about 2 minutes (this step enhances the flavor of the oats).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add apple chunks, cinnamon, salt, and water. Stir to combine, cover the lid and set to Portridge function to cook for about 35 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carefully remove lid and and let the oatmeal rest for 5 minutes before serving so it has more time to thicken up. Carefully taste (it\u2019s hot!) and add maple syrup or honey if you\u2019d like sweeter oatmeal (I used tart apples, so I added 1 tablespoon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serve with any toppings you\u2019d like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-background\">Tips<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re saving extra portions for later, let them cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
