1 cup steel cut Irish oatmeal
3 cups skim milk (or soy/nut based milk if you want to veganize)
1/4 cup olive oil
3 ounces of any dried fruit of your choice (I like cherries and raisins.)
2-3 fresh apples, peeled and diced or sliced
spices to taste:
they can either be the prepackaged apple spice blend,
or a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cardamon,
or even your favorite chai blend.

Mix oatmeal, milk, and oil in a casserole dish and set aside while you cut up the apples. Then stir in the dried fruit, spices, and apples. You can arrange the half the apple slices on top all fancy like and dust with spices, but it’s not necessary. They’ll taste just as good.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 1 hour.
