Another great recipe! I added a little vanilla.

I’m amazed at how filling this small portion can be.

Here’s how I make steel cut oats:

2 cups H20
2 cups milk (I’ve heard people do this with fruit juice tho)

Both in a saucepan. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, vanilla (1 tsp or so).

Heat to just boiling

Add 2 cups oats, raisins (I just eyeball until I think enough is in there), dried cranberries, sultanas, nuts.

Reduce heat and cook it for, I don’t know, until it looks “right” to me (pretty much when most of the liquid is absorbed)

Turn off the heat. Put the lid on. Let it sit overnight.

We, DH & I find it makes enough for 4 or 5 days.

We heat it and sweeten it before we eat in the morning. It’s kind of like having dessert for breakfast.

To make easy steel cut oats, boil 4 cup water in a medium sauce pan. Add 1 cups oats. Turn off burner and cover pan with tight fitting lid. Leave on stove over night, and in the morning, you have perfect oatmeal.

If you add raisins or some other dried fruit, it sweet enough that you don’t need to add any sweetener. I often add cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and cardamom. I love spice in my oatmeal! :)

Sandy, I have always used Sugar Free instant Butterscotch pudding in the Pumpkin Fluff recipe. It is a big hit at family gatherings. k

I made oatmeal something like this this morning, with a packet of instant, 1/2 cup of pumpkin, 1/4 cup milk and some cinnamon. It was delicious. Thanks for the idea!

Roni,

Haven’t looked at your sites in a while, and then saw this! I love pumpkin and oatmeal and can’t wait to try this at home. The apple pie oatmeal as well, for my hubby who loves apple pie (though he doesn’t usually eat oatmeal).

Hope all is well,

Can someone post the pumpkin fluff recipe. I’m not a Weight Watchers member. I am looking for something that would be like the filling of pumpkin pie without the crust. Can you just make up the pumpkin pie filling and bake it in custard cups?
