Apple Cinnamon Steel Cut Oatmeal

I really wanted to try and to own a rice cooker. Hamilton Beach was kind enough to supply me with a fabulous one!! I was so excited to start to use it. The very first thing I wanted to try was Apple Cinnamon Steel Cut Oatmeal. Maybe I should have started with rice but that is just me. I go into it full bore!! I had never made steel cut oatmeal before and never used the machine. Well, I was sure delighted with the outcome. The rice cooker was simple to use, after of course following the directions. The basic recipe for steel cut oatmeal was supplied to me from Laureen King from Art and The Kitchen; she actually inspired me to get the rice cooker as she says she loves hers.

The oatmeal turned out so good, perfect for a winter day. Rich with the apples and cinnamon. A small pat of butter and a sprinkle of brown sugar and you have the most delicious of breakfasts. So convenient and easily made in the rice cooker.

Look at how handsome this machine is and they are not crazy expensive either, between $35 and $50 on their site for all makes and models. What a great Christmas gift this would make!!

The machine is a smart one, with a built in weight it knows how much water and rice you have and times it perfectly. After it finishes cooking, it shuts off but keeps your rice warm for 12 hours!! That is fabulous!! I had dinner already for the family and then we could sit down and talk about our day with out having to check on anything. I truly loved every thing about this machine and it will be pulled out again and again. I can’t wait to get even more creative and try new recipes!!
