I wanted to put on a Steel Cut Oat breakfast so I started throwing things in the pot....I had a bunch of overripe bananas that had been stuck in the freezer so I built off of that. Everyone gobbled it up!!!
2 cups steel cut oats
4 cups water
3 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup 100% maple syrup(if you dont have 100%, use brown sugar and increase milk 1/2 cup)
1 1/2- 2 cups mashed bananas, about 6 medium
1/4 cup ground flax
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped coarsely
1/2 cup raisins *optional
Combine all ingredients in a lined slow cooker(seriously liners are WELL worth it, this is a pain to scrub out!), set to low and go to bed! (6-8 hours) Give it a good stir in the am and breakfast is ready.
Oh my goodness. this looks absolutely delicious. I'm just bummed that I have no overripe bananas anywhere in my house. I really enjoy reading your blog. It was recently suggested to my that my developmentally delayed 3 year old stay away from gluten. looking through your recipes has helped assuage my fears of cooking gluten free. Thank you so very much
ReplyDeleteGood Luck Heather! It is definitely a different way of cooking but once you get into it its a snap.
