Learn how to cook steel-cut oats three different ways; on the stove-top, in the slow-cooker oats and overnight. Steel-cut oats are the whole oat groat cut into smaller pieces with a steel mill, so they are super nutritious and absolutely delicious.
The first question most people have about steel cut oats is is how are they different from rolled oats? Rolled Oats are simply the entire oat groat (before they are cut into pieces to make steel-cut oats), steamed, rolled, re-steamed, and toasted. Basically, they have been through a bit more processing, so they tend to lose a little of their nutritional value and some of the hearty, chewy texture.

STOVETOP METHOD
1 cup steel-cut oats
2 cups water
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
In a medium saucepan, bring water and milk to a boil. Add oats and stir. Watch them closely for the first couple of minutes because sometimes they like to bubble up and over.
Cover and simmer 20-30 minutes over low heat until oats reach the consistency you like (20 minutes for chewy, al dente oats, 30 minutes for more creamy).
Scoop into bowls and serve with your favorite toppings.
OVERNIGHT METHOD
1 cup steel-cut oats
4 cups water
In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add oats and stir.
Cover and turn off the heat. Let sit overnight.
In the morning add a splash of water (or milk) to loosen the oats and heat over medium-low heat until warmed through.
Scoop into bowls and serve with your favorite toppings.
SLOW COOKER METHOD
butter, coconut oil or cooking spray
1 cup steel-cut oats
2 cups water
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
pinch of salt *optional
cinnamon stick *optional
Coat the slow cooker with butter, coconut oil or cooking to spray to prevent the oats from sticking.
Add oats, water milk, salt and cinnamon to your slow cooker and stir.
Cover and cook on low setting 4-6hours, or on high for 2-3 hours.
Scoop into bowls and serve with your favorite toppings.
I like using the unsweetened almond milk because it adds a subtle sweetness and creamy texture but, if you prefer, you can use all water for each technique and still have super creamy, delicious oats.
