Steel-cut oats are a healthy and delicious way to start your day. By soaking them overnight you can cut the cooking time in half.

2/3 Cup
Steel-cut oats
1 Tbsp
Currants (optional)

1
Place the water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the steel-cut oats and mix well. Remove from heat and let cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, add the currants to the pan and mix in well. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve in a bowl with a little non-dairy milk poured over the top, if desired.
Hint: To add more servings, add 1 cup of water and 1/3 cup of steel-cut oats for each additional serving. For example, for 3 servings use 3 1/2 cups water and 1 cup of steel-cut oats.
