How to Make Heart Healthy Steel Cut Oatmeal With Choice Of Variations

  1. Combine 1 cup steel-cut oats, 3 cups water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the oats are tender and creamy, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes. This allows the oats to fully absorb the liquid and become even creamier.
  5. Divide oatmeal into individual servings and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  6. To reheat, microwave individual servings for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
