Today’s Breakfast
Wednesday, June 24th, 2009
Today’s breakfast: steel cut oats (simmered on the stovetop for about 35-40 minutes), fresh berries from the Farmer’s Market, cinnamon, a tiny squirt of agave nectar and shredded coconut. This is so seriously delicious it should be labeled dessert!
Want to try this at home? I suggest using a crockpot (slow cooker) for a gentle overnight way of cooking this delicious grain. Throw in steel cut oats + 4 times the amount of water as oats into a greased crockpot, add some cinnamon sticks and put on low for 8 hours overnight. Add the toppings in the morning (raisins, berries, almonds, walnuts, ground flax, sweetener, etc).
OK, gotta go finish my breakfast!
