Creamy Steel Cut Mango Coconut Oatmeal image

Steel cut oats simmer with coconut milk until luscious and creamy. Stir in some fresh mango and top with toasted coconut for pure heaven. Bonus: it's vegan! The coconut milk and vanilla lend the perfect touch of sweetness (but not too much!) - you can add a little sweetener if you like.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup steel-cut oats (not fast-cooking)
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups light coconut milk (canned)
Pinch salt
3/4 cup chopped ripe mango
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 tablespoons sugar or other preferred sweetener (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spread the coconut onto a cookie sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even toasting, until the coconut is golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside.
  • Place steel-cut oats, water, light coconut milk, and salt in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Stirring occasionally, bring ingredients to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes until thick and creamy.
  • Stir in mango and vanilla extract. Taste for sweetness, and add sugar if desired depending on your individual tastes.
  • Spoon into individual bowls and sprinkle with toasted coconut. Serve.
