What You’ll Need
- Oats, Steel Cut*
- Water

*Due to dietary needs, we used Nature’s Path Organic Steel Cut Gluten Free Oats

How We Did It
NOTE: Directions are for 1 serving. If the directions on your steel cut oats are different than those that are below, follow those directions.
- Add 1 cup of water to the saucepan and bring it to a boil.
- Once water is boiling, stir 1/4 cup oats in slowly.
- After oats have thickened a bit (and stirring occasionally), reduce heat.
- Let simmer uncovered for about 25 minutes or until the oats have reached a desired consistency (continue to stir occasionally).
- Remove from heat and add 1–2 Tablespooons of Peanut Butter.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
