  • Prep Time

Ingredients

  • A generous 8 cups of water
  • 2 cups of steel-cut oats for a hearty touch
  • Just a dash of salt to enhance flavors
  • 1 cup of rich whole milk for creaminess
  • A delightful 1/3 cup of brown sugar
  • Melted butter to add a luscious touch, about 1 tablespoon
  • A teaspoon of aromatic ground cinnamon
  • Finally, 1 cup of sweet dried cranberries

Step 1

In a spacious pot, let water come to a lively boil. Introduce oats into the bubbling water, stirring gently, and allow it to simmer until it thickens, typically around 5 minutes. Add a dash of salt for flavor and give it a good stir.

Step 2

Next, lower the heat to a gentle simmer and let the oats cook until they start to soften, which usually takes about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine milk, brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon, whisking until the mixture is smooth. Gradually incorporate this delightful blend into the oats, stirring continuously.

Step 3

Continue to cook the oats until they reach a tender consistency, which may take another 10 to 15 minutes. To add a burst of fruity flavor, gently fold in cranberries to evenly disperse them throughout the oatmeal. Allow the berries to warm up in the mixture for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. When storing your cranberry and cinnamon steel cut oats, be sure to use airtight containers to keep them fresh and flavorful for longer.
  2. 2. Consider portioning out individual servings into small mason jars or containers for easy grab-and-go breakfasts during the week.
