The Bent Fork Oatmeal....yes it can be great!
The Bent ForkOatmeal....yes it can be great!
Steel Cut Oats with Vanilla Poached Pears and Creamed Honey
1/2 cup steel cut oats
2 cups water
1 pear, peeled cored and quartered
3/4 cup water
1-2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla paste
Creamed honey to serve
- Bring the 2 cups of water to a boil in a sauce pan.
- Once it boils add the steel cut oats, give it a stir, and then cover. Cook, stirring frequently to make sure it doesn’t stick, until cooked to your liking. Some like it chewier than others. Add more water if it starts looking too dry. If it looks to wet, cook, stirring briskly, uncovered.
- While you are bringing your water for the oats to the boil, start on your pears. Place the 3/4 cup water in a small skillet or pan that will hold all the pears in one layer. Turn on heat and add sugar and vanilla, stir until sugar dissolves. Once sugar is completely dissolved, add the pear quarters and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes, checking every once in a while to turn the quarters over, or until pears are cooked through (and can be easily pierced with a fork). Take off the heat and let the pears cool in their poaching liquid.
- When the oats are cooked divide between two bowls. Top each serving with two pears quarters, and a mini-dollop of creamed honey (depending on how sweet you want it).
