STOVETOP STEEL CUT OATS

A friend of mine has been purchasing steel cut oats in bulk from the Amish in our area and sharing! Since I didn't know how to prepare them, I found a similar recipe online and adapted it to my taste. *Note-you can use 4 cups of water and omit the milk. The milk makes it creamier.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup steel cut oats
3 1/2 cups water
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup skim milk
1 teaspoon vanilla or 1 teaspoon almond extract
1 pinch cinnamon

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a boil in a large pot. Add the steel cut oats and and salt. Stir.
  • Reduce the heat to medium low and cook for 30 minutes. Make sure you stir the oats occasionally so they don't stick to the pan.
  • When the oats start to thicken, at about 30 minutes, add in the milk and extract. I think the milk makes the oats creamier. Stir the oats, milk, and extract together and cook for ten more minutes.
  • Add in cinnamon and raisins or whatever toppings you wish.
  • (If you want to make bruleed oats-put the oats in a bowl, sprinkle with brown sugar and turbinado sugar. With a creme brulee torch, fire the top of the oats until the sugar is crystalized).
  • Serve the oats hot. This batch makes 4-6 servings. If you want you can let the oats cool and then portion them out into smaller containers. To reheat, add a splash of milk and reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.

PAM'S STOVETOP STEEL CUT OATS



Pam's Stovetop Steel Cut Oats image

I never had steel cut oats until about a year ago. I was watching one of the food shows and they were talking about how different they were from the old fashioned rolled oats. Being a "rebel" that will try almost anything, I bought a can of McCann's Irish Steel Cut Oats and haven't used a packet of instant or a box of rolled oats...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c steel cut oats (not instant, mccann's is my choice)
1 1/2 Tbsp butter
2 1/2 c water, or silk brand vanilla flavored almond or coconut milk, or any % regular milk
1/2 c whole milk (optional) if using, cut other liquids to 2 c.
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
sweetener to taste (honey, agave nectar, stevia, maple syrup, molasses, sugar, brown sugar, splenda, etc)
heavy cream, half and half, or milk (your choice and amount preference)

Steps:

  • 1. In a heavy medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium high heat and add the oats, stirring constantly to toast the oats before cooking. This will take a few minutes of stirring and when you notice a toasty, nutty aroma and a slightly browned color, they are ready to add the liquids.
  • 2. Pour in the liquid(s), add salt and stir until the oats get smooth and thickened slightly. Turn the heat down to very low (just barely blurping)and cover. Cook on very low, stirring about every 5 minutes for 20 to 30 minutes. (To test for doneness, taste a few grains. They should be tender, but still have some "tooth" and texture.)
  • 3. When the oats are done to your liking, stir in the vanilla extract and serve. Use your favorite sweetener and a splash of your choice of dairy product. Stir and enjoy.

Tips:

  • To save time, use a food processor to grind the oats into a coarse flour before cooking.
  • For a creamier texture, use a mixture of whole milk and water to cook the oats.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the cooking water to enhance the flavor of the oats.
  • Stir the oats frequently during cooking to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • If the oats start to thicken too much, add a little more milk or water.
  • Once the oats are cooked, remove them from the heat and let them sit for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the oats with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or honey.

Conclusion:

Stovetop steel-cut oats are a delicious and healthy breakfast option that can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a pot of perfect oats that will keep you feeling full and satisfied all morning long.
