Steel-cut oats are an
alternative to rolled
oats. Instead of rolling
the grain flat, the
whole oat groat is sliced
using steel blades. This
produces a hot cereal
with a more interesting
texture than rolled
oats.
Oat bran is an especially
rich source of
beta-glucan, and is
somewhat higher in
minerals than regular oatmeal.
Ingredients
Directions
Pre-cook oats the night before to minimize morning cooking time. Again in the morning, bring the oats to a simmer and add the banana, salt, cinnamon, and oat bran. Keep stirring and simmer until you have the desired consistency (10 minutes or so), remove from heat, and stir-in the strawberries and protein powder.
