Wash the apple, core it and cut it into small cubes with the skin on.
Put the oats in a small pan with the oat milk and a pinch of salt and heat slowly.
Bring the porridge to the boil, stirring, then let it thicken gently over a low heat until creamy.
Meanwhile, heat the diced apple with the maple syrup and cinnamon in a small frying pan or a second pan until soft and releasing a little juice.
Roughly chop the walnuts.
Spoon the porridge into a bowl, top with the warm cinnamon apples and serve with the walnuts.
