    I like them rolled in peanut butter and raisins.

    I don't even like the texture of them wet. I only eat them dry, mixed with peanut butter and little maple syrup (about 1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 2 Tbs pb, 1 tsp syrup). Makes a great dessert or breakfast.

    I can also eat steel cut oats mixed in with brown rice in some dishes, but honestly I only do this because I bought a bag of steel cut oats after being told on MFP how they tasted so different and had a much different texture (which was a lie) and now I need to use them up.

    I haven't tried raw oats but my son eats that way - I had never seen it before. I will have to try it!

    Here's a twist... Try steel cut oats in Greek yogurt with protein powder.... The steel cut oats have a much different consistency... Almost reminds me of Grape Nuts cereal.

    Okay, I have to ask. I keep seeing this overnight oatmeal.... What's the appeal? Is it a different consistency/flavor than cooked oatmeal?
