On medium heat, whisk together coconut milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and vanilla extract.
Add in the grated carrots, chia seeds, and rolled oats. Bring to a low boil and then reduce the heat to let the mixture simmer. Cook uncovered for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
While the oatmeal is cooking, sauté your diced apple in coconut oil and add a pinch of cinnamon. Cook until fork tender.
When the oatmeal is done, portion into bowls, top with sautéed apples, and enjoy.
