For this recipe I gave Steel Cut Oats a try. What is that you ask? It's also known as Irish oats and is the least processed kind of oatmeal. Old Fashioned Oats are Steel Cut Oats that have been flattened and steamed in rollers. Steel Cut Oats have a chewier flavor to them. I always try to add chia seeds to my oatmeal for additional protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and fiber.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup Country Choice Organic Steel-Cut Oats
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 peach
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp maple syrup (or yacon syrup)
- 1 tsp chia seeds
Directions
- Bring milk to boil on the stove. Then add the the oats and reduce heat. Cook for about 15 minutes.
- Mix in vanilla, cinnamon and chia seeds.
- Transfer to a bowl and add the maple syrup and top chopped peaches.
