Baked Steel Cut Oats

Are Steel Cut Oats Gluten Free?

Step-By-Step Instructions

Toast the steel-cut oats over medium heat, constantly stirring for 5 minutes to give them a nutty, toasty flavor.

Add the warming spices and let them toast for one minute… Enjoy the warm aroma.

Add  the seeds:  flax seeds, sesame seeds and pumpkin seeds.

Bake! Place in a 375 F oven and bake for 40 minutes. The apples will rise to the top and begin to caramelize. Brush with a little maple syrup ( or butter) and broil for 1 minute until perfectly golden.

Voila! Your Baked oats are done! With only 15 minutes of hands-on time, the oven does most of the work here!

To serve, you could add a little more maple syrup or a dollop of butter- like my husband Brian prefers.
I like my mine just like it is… light and lean.
