Alton Brown's Steel Cut Oats image

Here is Alton's method for making a nice creamy bowl of hearty steel-cut oats. His recipe adapts perfectly to overnight soaking. I followed the recipe through adding the boiling water, then cover it (heat off) and head to bed. In the morning, I add the milk and simmer for 10 minutes. Delicious!

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup steel cut oats
3 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk or 1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, melt the butter and add the oats. Stir for 2 minutes to toast.
  • Add the boiling water and reduce heat to a simmer. Keep at a low simmer for 25 minutes, without stirring.
  • Alternately, after adding the boiling water,cover the saucepan and remove from the heat. Allow to sit overnight on the counter. In the morning, proceed as directed below.
  • Combine the milk and the buttermilk (or yogurt) with the oatmeal. Stir gently to combine and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Spoon into a serving bowl and top with additional milk or buttermilk, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Feel free to garnish or sweeten as desired: chunky applesauce or fruit conserves are great, as is maple syrup, or add dried fruit to the oats and soak both overnight - sweetens the oats ever so slightly.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. The oats were bland and mushy, and the maple syrup and cinnamon didn't do much to improve the flavor. I won't be making this again.

So easy and so good! I've been making this recipe for years and it never disappoints. The oats are always creamy and flavorful, and the maple syrup and cinnamon add just the right amount of sweetness and spice.

These oats were delicious! I loved the nutty flavor of the steel-cut oats and the creamy texture. The maple syrup and cinnamon added a nice touch of sweetness and spice. I will definitely be making these again.

I've tried this recipe a few times now and it's become my go-to for steel-cut oats. The oats come out creamy and flavorful, and the maple syrup and cinnamon add just the right amount of sweetness and spice. I've also experimented with adding differen
