Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
1 cup steel-cut oats (not quick-cooking)
3 cups water
1 cup canned coconut milk (lite or full-fat, either work fine)
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Shredded coconut or coconut chips
Diced fresh mango
Diced fresh papaya
Diced pineapple
Sliced bananas
Chia seeds
Chopped macadamia nuts
Dried chopped mango
Golden raisins

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Add the steel-cut oats and cook, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Carefully pour in the water all at once (the water may hiss and sizzle because the pan is so hot, so keep this in mind. The faster you can pour in the water, the faster the pan will cool down). Stir in the coconut milk, pure maple syrup, and salt.
  • Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until thick and creamy, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.
  • Top with mango, papaya, and coconut and an extra drizzle of coconut milk if desired. Or try other assorted toppings - whatever you wish!
