How to Make Scotch Oatmeal

  1. Combine 1 cup steel-cut oats and 3 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy) in a covered container. Soak in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  2. Pour the oat mixture into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until oats are tender but still have a slight bite, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Stir in 1/4 cup brown sugar (or to taste), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. Remove from heat and pour into a bowl. Top with extra cinnamon, brown sugar, and a sprinkle of sea salt (optional) to taste.
