This recipe was found by Ty.

Ingredients

• 1 cup steel cut oats
• 3 1/2 cups water
• Pinch of salt
• 1/2 cup skim milk ((Note: For those with dairy allergies, an alternative such as almond milk or flax milk can be substituted or just leave out the milk altogether and add another 1/2 cup of water))
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Cinnamon, raisins, or whatever toppings you like

Instructions

• 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 vanilla. I think the milk makes the oats creamier. Stir the oats, milk, and vanilla together and cook for ten more minutes.
• Add in the 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 crystallized.
• Serve the oats hot. If you want you can let the oats cool and then portion them out into smaller containers. To reheat, I add a splash of milk and reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
