Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Time 25m

Yield Makes 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup rolled oats

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees; line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix butter, sugar, flour, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth; mix in rolled oats.
  • Drop firmly packed teaspoons of dough, 2 inches apart, onto baking sheets. Bake until golden,rotating sheets halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on sheet 1 minute; with a very thin metal spatula, transfer to paper towels to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats for a heartier cereal. Quick-cooking oats will become too mushy.
  • Toast the oats before cooking to enhance their flavor.
  • Use a combination of milk and water to cook the cereal. This will help to prevent the cereal from becoming too thick or too watery.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the cooking water to enhance the flavor of the oats.
  • Sweeten the cereal with honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar to taste.
  • Add your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or yogurt, to the cereal.

Conclusion:

This crunchy oat cereal is a delicious and healthy way to start your day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its combination of crunchy oats, sweet fruit, and creamy milk, this cereal is sure to please everyone at the breakfast table.
