Description

Luscious taste of steel cut oatmeal without having to stand over the pot cooking it for 45+ minutes.

This is our family’s daily breakfast during the school year.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Steel Cut Oats (not Instant, Not Rolled, Not Quick Cooking)
  • 4 cups Milk Or Water
  • 1 dash Salt (optional)

Preparation

Plug in crock pot.

Add water or milk, oats and dash of salt (optional but it really helps to bring out the nutty flavor of the oats) to the crock pot bowl. Cover with lid.

Milk creates a creamier consistency. Water is more traditional.

Set to low. Allow to cook 6-8 hours overnight depending on how hot your crockpot cooks. Newer models often cook faster and hotter.

Stir oats and serve.

Add cream, honey, fresh fruit, dried fruit, nuts, brown sugar – whatever you love in your oatmeal.

Easy peasy!

The recipe can easily be doubled, which is how I usually make it.

P.S. Soak your crockpot bowl for a little while once it’s done. Don’t leave cooked oatmeal in the crock – . it will take a long time to get it off.

Rolled oats really won’t work because they just disintegrate and it turns to goop. Two brands of steel cut oats that most grocery stores seem to carry are McCanns and Bob’s Red Mill. They are usually on the bottom shelf in the cereal aisle.

could i make this with regular old fashioned rolled oats, maybe if I reduced the cooking time? I tried to find steel cut oats at my local winco in the bulk section, but no such luck.
