Directions

1. Combine the milk, rolled oats, apple, dried ­cranberries (or raisins) and cinnamon in a heavy medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring almost constantly.
2. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until creamy and thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the flaxseeds. Spoon the cereal into individual bowls and top each serving with a dollop of yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup. One serving is 2/3 cup. Leftovers will keep, ­covered, in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat in the microwave.
