How to Make Steel Cut Oatmeal And Fruit For Two

  1. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 cup of steel-cut oats and stir constantly for 2 minutes until lightly toasted.
  3. Carefully pour in 2 cups of boiling water. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in ½ cup apple juice and continue to simmer for an additional 10 minutes, or until oats reach desired consistency.
  5. In a separate bowl, toss 1 cup of your favorite chopped fruit (e.g., berries, apples, bananas) with ½ teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar (adjust to taste).
  6. Stir the fruit mixture into the oatmeal along with ¼ cup of craisins. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
  7. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes to allow the oatmeal to thicken.
  8. Spoon into bowls and top with ¼ cup chopped nuts and an additional sprinkle of brown sugar, if desired.
