Ingredients
- 1/2 medium apple
- 1/3 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
- Core and finely chop apple half.
- Combine oats, egg and almond milk in a large mug. Stir well with a fork. Add cinnamon and apple. Stir again until fully mixed.
- Cook in microwave on high for 2 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Cook an additional 30 to 60 seconds if needed.
- Stir in a little more milk or water if thinner cereal is desired.
Helpful hints
- For additional flavor replace ground cinnamon with finely grated stick cinnamon.
- Cooking time may vary for different microwaves.
- Drizzle oatmeal with 2 teaspoons of honey if desired. Count as an additional 12 grams of carbohydrate and 1 carbohydrate choice if you follow a carbohydrate counting meal plan for diabetes.
- Substitute 1/4 cup 1% low fat milk and 1/4 cup water for almond milk if preferred. This changes the protein to 12 grams, phosphorus to 278 mg and potassium to 358 mg.
- Oatmeal is higher in potassium and phosphorus compared to refined grains, but can be included in most kidney diets. Discuss with your dietitian if you are unsure.
