Bring the water and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Whisk in the oatmeal.
4 cups water, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 ⅓ cup quick-cooking steel cut oats
Add the apple, raisins, pecans, and cinnamon. Stir well.
2 medium apples, ½ cup raisins, ½ cup chopped pecans, 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 5-6 minutes or until the water is mostly absorbed and the oats are tender.
Serve topped with brown sugar, half-and-half or cream, and diced fresh apples.
½ cup brown sugar, ½ cup half and half or cream

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm in a saucepan over medium heat with a splash of milk or water, stirring until smooth, or heat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each.
To freeze, portion into single servings and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
