Steel cut oats??

Put one scoop of protein powder in your shaker, add one half cup of oats, mix, drink.

I cook up a batch and then re-heat as well. I vary what I add each day. I use stevia to sweeten, then add things like raisins or chopped apples and cinnamon, a scoop of pumpkin, PB and J once in a while, banana, nuts-all kinds of things.

I've made these a few times - they are EXCELLENT.

I love steel cut oats. I make up a batch of 4 servings on Sundays, and then put them in individual containers. No special recipe, just cook them up plain with a pinch of salt. Usually put a bit of brown sugar and butter on top. then I can reheat at work throughout the week. Yums!!
(I can't bring my self to try the crockpot/overnight oatmeal thing. I read some bad reviews on that process.)

Definitely mix in a tablespoon or two of the flax seed during cooking for added nutrition!!

I cook steet cut oats weekly too. I add a pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon for flavoring as well as a few Craisins. OR

I have also tried adding a 1/4 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips to a whole batch to make it taste really good.

They are lovely! I cook up a batch in the slow cooker to last the week then reheat a serving in the microwave each morning.

Me too. I thought it was too much trouble before I thought to try the slow cooker.

Sometimes I add agave nectar, sometimes honey, raisins, whole flax seed.... or nothing at all. I like them plain too.

I use any and everything in rolled and steal cut oats . Depending on my mood just mix and match....Garlic & onion powder.....Texjoy Steak Seasoning, Tony Chachere, Old Bay, cayenne & black pepper, tasso, sausage and chicken bouillon. It's all good!

Regarding flax seed, you do want to keep it in the fridge so it will not go rancid. Only grind what you can use in a few days, keeping it also in the fridge. Start with perhaps a teaspoon a day as it adds a lot of fiber. You want to grind it because the tiny seeds will pass through the digestive tract completely intact otherwise. They are an excellent source of omega 3's. I generally add a tablespoon of ground flax seed in my smoothies.

Steel cut oats can be very yummy, but they take a lot longer to cook than regular oats, so be aware of that. They are a nice change. My 18-yo daughter prefers them to regular rolled oats.

Preheat oven 350 degrees

4 heaping tablespoons peanut butter
4 eggs worth of flaxseed [4 tbsp ground flaxseed+ 12 tbsp water] [the original recipe called for 4 egg whites but we did not have eggs]
Cinnamon (to your liking) I sprinkle a generous amount and just eyeball it
2-3 mashed bananas (I used a potato masher)
10 stevia packets
Quick Cook Steel cut oats (pour in as much as you think would soak up the liquid while cooking) I eyeball this since I do not mind if they have an extra oatmeal taste. Stir in oatmeal until it thickens and becomes the consistency of cookie dough.

Bake at 350 degrees 30 minutes or until they have risen a little and do not have too much moisture left. They will still be moist. I am experimenting with cooking them a little bit more each time to see how dry I can make them and have them still edible.

*I made them in mini loaf pans today (spraying the pans with cooking spray before baking) and they look and smell like mini banana bread loafs. I put them in individual containers and refrigerate them for the week to bring for snack at work or eat for breakfast/dessert at home.

Who knew oatmeal could be so easy to prepare and be so tasty!!!
