Ingredients

1 cup steel-cut oats
4 cups milk
Pinch kosher salt
Two 3-inch-long cinnamon sticks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup dried currants
3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
Serving suggestions: Honey, sugar, maple syrup, milk, buttermilk, yogurt, or cream

Directions

In a medium bowl, combine the oats and milk. Cover and let soak in the refrigerator overnight.

Transfer the oat mixture to a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Add the salt and cinnamon sticks and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the vanilla, currants, and sugar; and simmer for 5 minutes more. Remove the cinnamon sticks and serve plain or with your topping of choice.

This is worth making. It's how I will now always make oatmeal. I would skip the salt though. It doesnt need it.

I've only managed to make this one time without burning it to the bottom of the pan. I'm surprised that no one else said... that. Must just be me. That one time, it was wonderful. All the other times it just tasted, well, burnt.Read more
