This is a fantastic recipe! I'm also a big fan of the slow cooker version. It's so awesome to wake up and have your breakfast hot and waiting for you!

Are you kidding?

Hot, rich and creamy. I mix in dried cranberries and papaya cubes. With a dash of Maple Syrup, I'm good for the whole day. One batch lasts for three days in the fridge. Just take out 1/3 put it in a bowl; microwave for 2 1/2 minutes, add the dried fruit and buttermilk.

Great way to start the day!

I got my steel-cut oats from Bob's Red Mill. The cooking instructions on the package call for 3 cups of water and 20 minutes on simmer. After toasting the oats in butter, I added the 3 cups of water and simmered for 20 minutes, following the Good Eats recipe up to that point. By this time the oats were tender to my taste and a little bit on the soupy side. I can't get my oats to soak up 3 cups of liquid, let alone an additional cup of dairy. Maybe my steel-cut oats start off with a higher moisture content than Alton's. Maybe I like my oats a little bit chewier than he does. Based on these results, the next time I reduced the water to 2.5 cups, simmered for 20 minutes, let it stand covered for 5 minutes, and then folded in 1 cup of vanilla yogurt. That worked out really well for me. I also fold in 1/4 cup of shelled hemp seed, but that's another show...

The recipe was deliciously creamy, but I think a half-teaspoon of salt is maybe more like it. A full teaspoon = creamy salt lick.

We really like this recipe, but my wife tried it just now (I usually make it and it's wrong on the site.

Simple corrections:
- You do add the 1/2 cup buttermilk and 1/2 cup milk at the same time. All of it. You dress it with buttermilk later. This says only add half of the buttermilk.
- The butter *must* be unsalted for the toasting.
- After the 25 minutes of cooking, you're supposed to add 1tsp of kosher salt (if I recall correctly

It still tastes great, but not as good as when it's done correctly.

I followed the recipe and was not disappointed. I have found in the last year that to eat well, it takes time. I enjoy spending time and effort on eating well, "good eats" and leaving processed foods behind. This tastes better, feels better, and looks better on my body. :

I'd never had steel-cut oats before, but friends have raved about it, so I thought I'd give it a try. Delicious! I used non fat milk rather than buttermilk & added a handful of dried blueberries at the end. I will be making this again!

I have been making this recipe for a long time and I use 1/2 C milk and 1/2 C Low-Fat Yogurt (or all milk or yogurt and that is a good taste also. I eliminate the butter and it's just as good. Yes, I do add salt also. Sometimes I even add homemade apple sauce and cinnamon while cooking for a different taste.

Whole Oat Groats are a great addition. I cook mine in my pressure cooker and they really cook up nice & fast in there. Then I add the cooked oat groats to my steel cut oats for a nice combination.

Maple Syrup is way better than brown sugar (personal preference I know and Maple Syrup time is just around the corner. I buy it by the gallon because it's less expensive and then heat it up and seal in quart glass canning jars.

If you just put all the ingredients (minus the butter and sugar in a http://www.brownricecookersite.com>rice cooker with a porridge setting and a timer</a > and then you can just wake up to a fresh pot of steel cut oats. Minus all the overflow, burning and watching the pot for 30 minutes at 5 am.
