The best recipe for Steel Cut Oats
Yup, another morning of snow…
Need a little warming up on these cold winter mornings?
Try a bowl of steel cut oats!
Two ways:
- Cranberry Orange Flax
- Coco Banana Cashew
my new favorite 🙂
Yes, steel cut oats take more time to cook than old-fashioned oats, and even more time than quick-cooking oats. But…they are better for you and in my opinion, taste better too! They are a bit chewier than regular oats and when dressed up with spices, nuts, fruit and maple syrup, they make for a perfect winter breakfast!
