How To Make Creamy Make-Ahead Steel Cut Oats

• portions: 4 servings

Ingrédients

1 teaspoon butter or olive oil

1 cup steel-cut oats

3 cups water

Pinch salt

1 cup milk (optional)

Instructions

Step 1

Measure out the oats. Start this the night before you want to have steel-cut oatmeal. Measure out your oats.

Step 2

Toast the oats. Heat the butter or oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the oats and fry them until they start smelling toasty, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the water and salt. Stir in the water and salt. Bring to a rolling boil.

Step 4

Cover and let it sit overnight. Turn off the heat and cover the pan. Leave it on the stove, and go to bed!

Step 5

Reheat the oatmeal the next morning. The next morning, uncover the pan and bring the oatmeal back up to a simmer. If you would like thinner and creamier oatmeal, stir in a cup of milk before reheating. When the oatmeal is warm, scoop out and enjoy!
