Yummy and healthy, with a little prep time the night before, you'll have a great start for breakfast. I like to cook it while cooking dinner so I'm done with two meals at once.

How To Make steel cut oats

  • 1
    Add oatmeal to a small crock pot/slow cooker. sometimes I use my small rice cooker because of convenient size and it never sticks!
  • 2
    Add 1- 1/2 cups of water. If cooking it on high, do not cover with lid. I usually do it this way and stir occasionally. If cooking on low, cover with lid.
  • 3
    Cook for 20-30 min on high. The water will be absorbed and this is where I start to add almond milk, about a half cup at a time. Add Cinnamon and any other healthy ingredients you wish to throw in!

    Continue to stir occassionally and add milk. About 20 min more cook time on high.
