Overnight Steel Cut Oats
These overnight steel-cut oats are the ultimate make-ahead breakfast. Make a batch for the whole family, or store the extra servings in the fridge to eat throughout the week. We love these creamy steel-cut oats topped with honey, bananas and raspberries, but any sweetener, chopped fruit or nut topping will work well.

Ingredients
-
3 cups water
-
3 cups unsweetened almond milk
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 ½ cups steel-cut oats (see Tip)
-
1 tablespoon honey
Method
-
Combine water, almond milk, vanilla and salt in a large saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. (Watch carefully to ensure the mixture doesn't boil over.)
-
Once the mixture is boiling, reduce heat to medium and add oats; cook, stirring constantly, until the oats just begin to soften and absorb some of the liquid, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat, cover the pot and let the mixture cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container or keep in the same pot; refrigerate covered, for at least 8 hours or up to 12 hours.
-
Transfer to a large saucepan, if necessary. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook, stirring often, until the mixture has thickened and the oats have softened, about 10 minutes. Drizzle with honey before serving.
