Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Add liquids, oats, and salt into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  • Once it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low. Let simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Check your oats after 20 minutes, and cook an additional 5 to 10 minutes until they reach your desired texture. The longer they simmer the softer and creamier they will become.
  • Remove from heat, stir, and the oats will continue to thicken as they cool.
  • Garnish with your favorite toppings, serve, and enjoy.

Notes

For added sweetness, you can use:
  • ½ ripe banana or 1 tablespoon maple syrup
