- Be sure to use a large wide deep bowl to prepare you oats in the microwave because they will boil and bubble up as they cook. If your mug or bowl is too small the oatmeal is likely to spill out over the side of the bowl and make a huge mess in the microwave. It has happened to me and I don't want it to happen to you!
- Use whatever apple variety you like best and have on hand. I am a big fan of Pink Lady and Honey Crisp but any apple will work.
- I have made this with both old-fashioned and quick cooking oats with good results.
