RICE COOKER STEEL-CUT OATS

The rice cooker isn't a one-trick pony: It's actually the secret to waking up to hot, creamy oatmeal. Steel-cut oats soften in the machine while retaining their nutty flavor and nubby chew - all without any effort on your part. Since rice cooker models vary, you can play around with the water proportions to achieve your favorite consistency. Generally, though, you'll need a lot more water to oats using a rice cooker because oats stiffen and soak up even more water as they rest after cooking. Once they're done, you can top them however you like, but regardless of whether you prefer your oats sweet or savory, be sure to cook them with salt to enhance their flavor.

Time 2h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup steel-cut oats
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Savory toppings: sautéed or roasted vegetables; crisped bacon, sausage or ham; flaked smoked fish; cooked eggs; kimchi; pickles; nori; roasted salted nuts or seeds; avocado; fresh tomatoes; fresh greens or herbs
Sweet toppings: toasted nuts or seeds; dried fruit; fresh fruit; maple syrup; brown sugar; honey; jam; fruit compotes; milk or cream; nut butters

Steps:

  • Combine the oats and salt in a rice cooker. If using a model with a porridge setting and a cooking timer, stir in 3 1/2 cups cold water. If using a standard model, stir in 4 cups cold water.
  • If your machine has a timer setting, set it to start cooking 2 hours before you want to eat your oatmeal. If it doesn't have a timer, turn on the machine right before you go to bed. The machine should automatically go to a warming setting after it cooks the oatmeal, but check your machine to make sure.
  • Gently stir the oatmeal, then divide among bowls or airtight containers to eat on the go and add the toppings of your choice.

CREAMY BREAKFAST OATMEAL (RICE COOKER)



Creamy Breakfast Oatmeal (Rice Cooker) image

This is from a wonderful book, The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook, by Hensperger and Kaufmann. It makes a wonderful, creamy oatmeal with no watching or muss or fuss. Definitely use steel-cut oats, which have a wonderful texture, so superior to the regular stuff. I usually use dried cranberries, raisins or currants, instead of the dates.

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2/3 cup steel cut oats
1 2/3 cups milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 pinch fine sea salt
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 cup chopped dates

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients, except dates, in cooker; stir gently to combine; sprinkle dates on top.
  • Close the cover, set on Porridge cycle.
  • NOTE1: This recipe is designed for a rice cooker with fuzzy logic - use the porridge setting. If you have a regular rice cooker, you will need to watch it to determine when the oatmeal is done, probably 25 to 30 minutes, depending on your cooker.
  • NOTE2: Steel cut oats vary slightly. With some brands I find I need to reduce the milk to 1 1/2 cup to get the right consistency.
  • NOTE3: You can substitute vanilla flavored soy milk for the milk plus vanilla extract.
