Enjoy a warm and comforting breakfast with this Maple Cinnamon Steel Cut Oatmeal recipe. Creamy steel-cut oats are infused with the delightful flavors of maple syrup and cinnamon, then topped with fresh fruit for a delicious start to your day.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 cup steel cut oats (dry, un-rinsed)

3 cups boiling water

½ cup whole milk

½ cup low-fat buttermilk

¼ teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon maple syrup, plus more to taste

¼ teaspoon cinnamon, plus more to taste

2 cups fresh fruit or berries (such as sliced peaches and raspberries)

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter and Toast Oats: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the steel-cut oats and toast for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add Water and Simmer: Pour in the boiling water, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes without stirring.
  3. Combine Milk and Buttermilk: Mix the whole milk and buttermilk together. Pour this over the oats along with the salt. Stir gently until just combined.
  4. Continue Cooking: Cook uncovered for another 10 minutes, stirring gently once or twice. Avoid over-mixing to maintain a creamy texture.
  5. Flavor with Cinnamon and Maple Syrup: Stir in the cinnamon and maple syrup, adjusting to taste.
  6. Serve: Divide the oatmeal into four bowls and top each serving with fresh fruit. Optionally, add a sprinkle of cinnamon and a drizzle of extra maple syrup.
