Overnight Steel Cut Oats
The best method for making overnight steel cut oats that actually get soft and creamy. They're such an easy, healthy breakfast to prep and delicious served with fresh fruit as a topping.

Ingredients
- ½ cup steel cut oats
- 2 cups water
- pinch of sea salt
- toppings of choice - cinnamon, banana berries, hemp seeds, chia seeds, maple syrup, etc.
Instructions
- Place oats, water and salt into a saucepan and bring to a boil, watching carefully so the water doesn’t boil over. Turn down heat quickly and allow the oats to simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Transfer to a container with a lid, cover and place in the fridge overnight.
- The next morning, portion the oatmeal into jars. The recipe should make 2 servings.
- Add toppings of choice and enjoy cold. I love banana slices, berries, chopped nuts, chia seeds and nut butter for toppings.
