SO HOW'D IT GO?
Steel cut oats are just cut and not rolled. Rolled oats are "normal" oats. Rolled oats are somehow heated and squished llowing them to cook much faster. Usually u hafta cook steel cut for about 45 minutes, making them annoying for everday breakfast. If u have a crockpot and dont need to worry about burning your house down from cooking all night, they become much esier to make. This is a great idea
We tried this recipe this morning and I was totally impressed. Not to mention it was totally wonderful waking up to fresh oatmeal, with absolutely no work!!! I think it tastes better than regular rolled oats too. :D I just added some fresh fruit when I was ready to eat... yummy! ;D
