Apple Oatmeal

I have two children who beg for oatmeal every morning, with a side of hot cocoa and fresh whipped cream of course.
Today we are trying this variation.
I found the recipe at Wholefoods. I hope is tastes as yummy as it looks!

1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup buckwheat groats
2 cups unsweetened apple juice
2 cups water
1 cinnamon stick
Pinch of sea salt

Put oats and groats into a medium pot and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until toasted and fragrant, 5 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, put juice, water and cinnamon into a small pot and heat over medium heat until hot.

Carefully add hot juice mixture to oats and groats and return to the heat. Add salt, bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid is absorbed and oats and groats are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove and discard cinnamon and then ladle into bowls and serve.
