On their own they're pretty bland, but become +great when you add some things to the bowl. This recipe offers some suggestions +on what to add, but is by no means a comprehensive overview of what you can do +with oats. + +We cover both rolled and steel cut oats. Instant need not apply. + +## Ingredients + +- oats +- water +- pinch of salt + +Pick and choose additional ingredients: + +- chopped banana +- any berries +- cinnamon +- peanut butter + +## Directions + +1. Bring water (with pinch of salt) to boil. +2. Add oats. Use a 2:1 water-to-oats ratio (by volume) for rolled oats, 3:1 for + steel cut. +3. Boil on medium heat until most of the water has been absorbed/evaporated. + Rolled oats will be ready quicker than steel cut. +4. Pour over fruit in bowl (if having fruit). +5. Sprinkle cinnamon (if having cinnamon). +6. Mix. +7. Add a spoonful of peanut butter (if having peanut butter). + +## Serving sizes + +You'll need less dry steel cut oats versus rolled oats for the same serving +size. My personal "standard serving" is 1/3 cup steel cut or 1/2 cup rolled +(note that, per the ratios above, both of these end up needing 1 cup water). |
