  • Cook oats: Bring oats to a boil over high heat on the stovetop, then reduce heat to a low simmer and cook until oats are soft. This is usually 5 minutes for rolled oats, and 10 minutes for steel cut oats.
  • To serve: Transfer cooked oatmeal to a bowl. Optionally, you can top the oatmeal with a drizzle of nut or seed butter, a sprinkle of nuts or seeds, and a sprinkle of ground flax seeds.
    Optional toppings: nut butter, nuts or seeds, granola
  • Microwave cooking instructions: Alternatively you can also cook oats in the microwave. Cook rolled oats a microwave safe bowl for about 2 minutes, and steel cut oats for about 5 minutes. Make sure to cover the oats and stir once throughout cooking.

Notes

Steel cut vs. rolled oats: You can use either steel cut or rolled oats in this recipes. Rolled oats will cook faster, but have a softer (and mushier) texture. Steel cut oats take a bit longer to cook and have a sturdier texture.
Leftovers and storage: Store leftover oats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat by adding a small amount of water to the oats to rehydrate the, and reheating in a pot on the stove or for 1 minute in the microwave. Do not freeze.
Nutrition notes: Nutrition information is for oatmeal without optional toppings and uses fresh peaches instead of dried.
