Submitted by reader Brittan H. of Vermont, this recipe was described as a new take on an old favorite & found in 1 of my newsletters. What could be more British than starting your dy w/an infusion of tea? (Cooking time was estimated & 5 min prep time allowed) *Enjoy!* Ingredients:
3 cups milk |
1 cup water |
1 1/2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup steel cut oats |
4 earl grey tea bags |
2 tablespoons lemon zest |
honey (to taste) |
Directions:
1. In a lrg saucepan, combine milk & water until simmering. Remove from heat & add tea bags. Allow to steep for 5-10 minutes.
2. While the teabags are steeping, toast the oats. In a skillet set over low-heat, add 1 1/2 tbsp of butter. When butter stops foaming, add the oatmeal. Stir until butter & oatmeal are well-combined. When oatmeal is toasted & smells rich & nutty, remove from heat.
3. Remove the tea bags from the saucepan. Place on med-heat & return to a boil. Add oatmeal to the saucepan. Turn down to low-heat. Sprinkle in lemon zest & sweeten with honey to taste. Allow to cook until the oatmeal is thick & creamy. Serve warm, topped w/fruit, nuts or more honey. Thin w/milk as desired.
