the choice is yours.
if you think oatmeal is supposed to be bland and boring, your mind will be forever changed by this delicious recipe. the flavors here are nuts, i’m not even kidding — everything just works. there’s maple, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, vanilla, and cinnamon which make it so warm and comforting, like a hug in a bowl. i highly recommend you grate your own nutmeg for this and every recipe you ever make that requires nutmeg — seriously. the tart apple pieces and cranberries offer a great acidic balance to the sweetness. the salt is necessary here, so don’t skip it. it helps bring out all of the flavors
