This recipe make enough for several days.
Add your favorite fruit or Chia Seed Jam.

Overnight Oats (Next morning)

 Overnight Steel Cut Oats

2 cups steel oats
6 cups water
1 Cinnamon Stick
1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon Powder

Boil water, add oats and Cinnamon Stick, 1 tsp cinnamon powder, bring to a boil (lower to medium heat) uncovered for 20 min.
Stir occasional.
Make sure to stir within the last 5 minutes.
Take off hot burner, Cover with a lid, let it sit overnight. (I make this right before bed time.)

In the morning the water should all me absorbed. Remove cinnamon stick.

You can make these a variety of ways.
• Warm up the amount of oat’s desired. Top with fruit, Chia Seed Jam.
• Warm up a cup of oats, add amount desired of water or non-dairy milk (Unsweetened soy, homemade oat or rice milk), top with your favorite fruit or PD jam.
• Warm a cup of oats add ½ Banana (smashed), 1/2 cup non-dairy milk, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 Apple (chopped). Once it’s warm, top with the other half of the Apple (chopped) and Banana (Sliced).

Refrigerate the rest. This makes enough for several days. I have tried to cut the recipe in half but it just doesn’t turn out the same.

I look for unsweetened soy milk without additive. Trader Joe’s, WestSoy or Eden unsweetened soy milk. I have found that Trader Joe’s has the best price. You could also make your own rice or oat milk.
