Bring the oatmeal, flaxseed, and water to a boil in a saucepan, stirring occasionally. Do not overcook (if you plan to take the porridge to the office, for example), as the liquid will continue to absorb and the consistency will thicken. Meanwhile, cut the apple into small cubes. Then stir it into the hot oatmeal with the other ingredients, and you’re done. This recipe has now become my standard breakfast recipe, and I make it fresh almost every morning for my son and me. Tips: If I’m making the porridge just for myself, I use 1 cup of oatmeal, always double the amount of water (no milk, due to lactose intolerance), and microwave it in a large bowl for 2 minutes at 900 watts. The rest of the preparation is as described above, but with half the ingredients. You can use other fruit instead of apple. With banana, I prefer to sweeten it with agave syrup and use coconut flakes instead of sesame seeds and cashews instead of walnuts. You can use any nuts you like. A handful is always enough for me to get the necessary bite.
