Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup steel-cut oats
  • 2 cups water
  • pinch sea salt
  • toppings of choice such as cinnamon, banana slices, berries, hemp seeds, chia seeds, maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • In a saucepan, combine steel-cut oats, water, and a pinch of sea salt. Bring to a boil, making sure to watch it closely to prevent boiling over. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let simmer for just 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
