Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients
- 3 cups water
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup steel cut oats
- 1⁄4 teaspoon table salt
Directions
- Bring water and milk to simmer in large saucepan over medium heat. Meanwhile, heat butter in medium skillet over medium heat until just beginning to foam; add oats and toast, stirring constantly with wooden spoon, until golden and fragrant with butterscotch-like aroma, 1 ½ to 2 minutes.
- Stir toasted oats into the simmering liquid, reduce heat to medium-low; simmer gently, until mixture thickens and resembles gravy, about 20 minutes.
- Add salt and stir lightly with spoon handle. Continue simmering, stirring occasionally with wooden spoon handle, until oats absorb almost all liquid and oatmeal is thick and creamy, with a pudding-like consistency, about 7 to 10 minutes.
- Off heat, let oatmeal stand uncovered 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
