Steel Cut Oats Recipe

Ingredients

3 cups water

1 cup steel cut oats

2 tablespoons Butter

1 cup milk

Salt

Cinnamon (optional)

Brown sugar (optional)

Vanilla (optional)

Preparation

Melt butter in a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Add oats to butter and stir for 2-4 minutes, until lightly toasted.

Carefully add oats into pot of 3 cups boiling water. Stir and reduce heat to simmer. Simmer gently for 25 minutes, stirring once or twice.

Stir in 1 cup (warmed) milk or coconut milk into oatmeal. Continue to cook for another 8-10 minutes, or until most of the milk has been absorbed. Stir once or twice during the time to make sure oatmeal is not sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Remove oatmeal from heat. Cover and let stand for 2 minutes.
