    Forget those “overnight oats” - the best oatmeal (porridge!) doesn't have anything to do with mason jars or chia seeds. It’s about what you do to your oats. (Steel cut, old-fashioned, quick cooking - I'll go into that!) I'm sharing my ultimate method for making the most delicious breakfast. Period. Whether you like your oatmeal creamy or chewy, I’ve got you covered.

    I've been eating oatmeal daily for 17 years. Something to consider trying...
    Savory... yes, savory profiles with oats; cheese, sauces, meats, and vegetables, etc..
    My philosophy on oats is that it's a "vessel" to exploit much like rice, baked potatoes, tortillas, sandwich bread, pie dough, corn flakes, etc.

    I tried this yesterday (skipped the soaking), and this morning (after soaking). I can confirm it was worth the wait. Delicious, crispy, buttery oatmeal. Excellent tip, thank you. 👌🤤
    For all the haters;
    Vegan /Plant-based? Try vegan butter...
    Too much butter? Use less, or none. (You can toast oats sans butter)
    Too long to wait? Skip this part. It's still good. 4:42
    Portions too small? Try double measures...you do the math.🙄

  • @abraxsis
    @abraxsis Před 6 lety +359

    Overkill ... if you start with COLD water/almond milk in old fashioned oats and cook it all slowly to a boil, cook for 1-2 minutes after it boils. The oats get creamy naturally without adding in gobs of calorie laden butter and milk. I agree it is about technique, but but using milk and butter to make them creamy is cheating. Oh, and if you like the toasted oat flavor, then toast the oats in a dry pan (sans butter) then throw COLD liquid over them. Again, they'll get creamy naturally but with the nutty taste.

    Oooh... I am so gonna try this!! Right now I mix instant oats with rolled oats (and a tablespoon of broken flaxseed) and milk, microwave it for 2.5 minute. This makes the instant oats creamy but it leaves some bite from the rolled oats. then, to instantly make it a good eating temperature, I throw in frozen raspberries and blueberries.
    But, while it's healthy, warm and convenient, the flavor leaves something to be desired. Time to start buttering up those oats! :)

I refuse to apologize for NOT being OCD but I will ask forgiveness for being lazy. The raisin, date, and maple variety are my absolute favorite so, after following package directions, all I need to add are a pat of butter, a tablespoon of brown sugar, and (hold on to your hats) instead of milk, a large scoop of Maple Nut ice cream. Let it melt and you'll have breakfast in the Hall of the Viking Heroes! (No, you're still alive but it just makes you feel heroic.)

    The aroma alone makes this recipe worth making! It tastes great too! I just let them soak overnight on the stove and the next morning they were ready to heat up and eat for breakfast. Yum!

    In India they make a savory oatmeal that consists of a porridge like base with a cup of plain yogurt. This is tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, Asafoetida powder all in a little gingelly oil. Finally a little lemon juice and a dash of salt. You can add a spicy hot Indian pickle or some savory Indian snacks for a crunch to top it off. A very health option!

    Nicole is right, eating oatmeal for breakfast will make you happier than eating any other food. Why? Oatmeal is also a herb. Medicinally, oatmeal was and is used for healing the skin, intestinal illness, nerve problems, and uterine complaints, among others.

    At first I thought that this was too much work for a bowl of oatmeal. And I am certainly not going to wait hours to have a bowl in the evening. But I tried this recipe for an overnight breakfast during lockdown while I don't have to rush out of the door in the morning, and I have have to say it is pretty good. No joke about those irresistible toasted oats coated in butter. I used alternative milk and my topping with the crunchy toasted oats was peanut butter and raisins one serving; and yogurt and kiwi on another serving. So much better than over night cold soppy oatmeal. And I found it more filling. Not saying that I will do it regularly, but definitely an occassoinal treat.

  • @arcticMonk6

    This recipe looks great! Really looking forward to try it and grow it into a habit. As we have a strong family history of Diabetes and Cardio-Vascular diseases, recipe(s) such as this could really get the family started on oats and other whole-grains. We'll remember to reduce the butter too (thumbs up)

  • @dscorca
    @dscorca Před 6 lety

    Wow... simply wow!
    I made this with 1 1/2 c Almond Milk and it was fabulous too. Also, one morning I was craving this and didn't want to wait 6 hours for the oaks to soak, so I reduced the Almond Milk by 1/4c and let them soap for only 1 1/2 hours.... it came out almost as good.
    I've always been a grits with soft boil eggs fan but your recipe has made me a hot Porridge fan. FYI... it's also made my lady friend love visiting me for breakfast more often... so THANKS bunches for that too.

      which oats are you getting ? if you are using the instant ones or the quick cooking, try the rolled or steel cuts instead, they are healthier and taste so much better, on the flipside they take longer too cook though.

    I mean...the point of overnight oats is that it's a quick breakfast.
    This is a lot of steps when the alternative is something that's tasty and easy.
    Like this would be fun to try, but it's no replacement.

    Butter has so much artery-damaging saturated fat. Nothing wrong with overnight oats which take their good flavor from the delicious fruit toppings you choose and are so much easier to make.

    I'm not a big fan of porridge but I love baked oats. I tried this baked oats recipe that called for butter and the flavor wasn't any better than a recipe without butter so I stopped using it.
    I tried your hack by using the butter to toast the oats instead of adding it to the wet ingredients towards the end and it completely *transformed* the recipe! It was absolutely delicious. I will definitely toast my oats with butter from time to time .

    Method:
    Cooking starts at 2:26. Method about 4:24
    In a medium sauce pan with a medium flame, add 4 tablespoons salted butter. When it's melted, add 1.5 c oats and toast.
    Stir to coat and keep stirring so they don't burn. When they smell toasty they're done.
    Recipe:
    1.5 c toasted oats. Reserve half cup as topping.
    3 cups milk.
    Keep watching 4:26.
