Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal
I have been buying steel cut oats in bulk at my natural food store. We like them because they are more crunchy than regular rolled oats. We think they are more filling also. They do take a bit longer to cook, however, you can save some time by soaking them overnight.
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 45 min
Ingredients
4 Cups
Water
1 Cup
Steel cut oats
Directions
1
Bring the water to a boil.
2
Add the oats and mix well.

When the mixture starts to thicken slightly, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Variation: To soak the oats overnight, bring the water to a boil, add the oats, stir and turn off the heat. Cover and let rest overnight. In the morning, bring the heat up on the pot and cook over low heat, uncovered for about 10-12 minutes. To add a bit of sweetness to the oats, add a few currents to the water before boiling, then follow directions above.
