Then in the morning I sprinkle 1tbsp of flaxseeds on top. These 2 tbsp of seeds really fill me up and are packed with omega 3 fatty acids and much more.

    OMG!!!! What a total game changer!!! I made it just this morning (after starting it last night) and it is SOOO good! Very creamy!!! I used the vegan "Earth Balance Butter" and vanilla soy milk and WOW! I divided it into 4 servings and it packed 10.5g of protein per serving! And I paired it with my 5 minute steeped Earl Grey tea too! I felt like I was having a gourmet meal! 😀❤☕ The toppings definitely do taste like buttered popcorn for sure! Thanks again! I was going to post pictures for you on how it turned out but RUclips doesn't allow it. My daughter, whom I've been trying to get on board with oatmeal, even liked it! And SOOO filling! This is definitely now going to be a staple recipe for me; thank you!!!! 😘

      Of course it tastes soooo good... Butter makes most things taste good and there's soooo much butter in proportion to the oats. But hey, if you enjoy it then go for it. I don't think I will try them. They probably taste amazing then I won't ever be able to go back to healthy oats!😁

  • @abraxsis
    @abraxsis 6 лет назад +359

    Overkill ... if you start with COLD water/almond milk in old fashioned oats and cook it all slowly to a boil, cook for 1-2 minutes after it boils. The oats get creamy naturally without adding in gobs of calorie laden butter and milk. I agree it is about technique, but but using milk and butter to make them creamy is cheating. Oh, and if you like the toasted oat flavor, then toast the oats in a dry pan (sans butter) then throw COLD liquid over them. Again, they'll get creamy naturally but with the nutty taste.

    I tried this yesterday (skipped the soaking), and this morning (after soaking). I can confirm it was worth the wait. Delicious, crispy, buttery oatmeal. Excellent tip, thank you. 👌🤤
    For all the haters;
    Vegan /Plant-based? Try vegan butter...
    Too much butter? Use less, or none. (You can toast oats sans butter)
    Too long to wait? Skip this part. It's still good. 4:42
    Portions too small? Try double measures...you do the math.🙄
    I think this recipe assumes you have some common sense.

    Method:
    Cooking starts at 2:26. Method about 4:24
    In a medium sauce pan with a medium flame, add 4 tablespoons salted butter. When it's melted, add 1.5 c oats and toast.
    Stir to coat and keep stirring so they don't burn. When they smell toasty they're done.
    Recipe:
    1.5 c toasted oats. Reserve half cup as topping.
    3 cups milk.
    Keep watching 4:26.

    In India they make a savory oatmeal that consists of a porridge like base with a cup of plain yogurt. This is tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, Asafoetida powder all in a little gingelly oil. Finally a little lemon juice and a dash of salt. You can add a spicy hot Indian pickle or some savory Indian snacks for a crunch to top it off. A very health option!

    Savory... yes, savory profiles with oats; cheese, sauces, meats, and vegetables, etc..
    My philosophy on oats is that it's a "vessel" to exploit much like rice, baked potatoes, tortillas, sandwich bread, pie dough, corn flakes, etc.

    Oooh... I am so gonna try this!! Right now I mix instant oats with rolled oats (and a tablespoon of broken flaxseed) and milk, microwave it for 2.5 minute. This makes the instant oats creamy but it leaves some bite from the rolled oats. then, to instantly make it a good eating temperature, I throw in frozen raspberries and blueberries.
    But, while it's healthy, warm and convenient, the flavor leaves something to be desired. Time to start buttering up those oats! :)

    Cute! Will try your style Nicole. Seems delicious. Thank you. Looks Good for Breakfast. I hope it won't raise my blood sugar level. I usually cook mine like a lunch meal. Cook it with chicken broth ( Chicken stock) instead of milk (Not too thick & more like clam chowder), ginger powder, turmeric powder, lemon juice, pepper & salt to taste. And top it up with finely chopped onion leaves, fried toasted garlic & shredded boiled chicken. This style of mine lowers my blood sugar level 20 points. Try it! It's delicious. Hope you like it too. :)

    Cooking oats in butter definitely adds flavour.I blend my rolled oats into flour n cook them on the stove to a smooth consistency, stirring often n u can make extra to last a few days.Add flavour n toppings when u'r ready to eat.Consistency I make like smoothie-drinkable.No chewing😃

    I do the toasting in the oven on a cookie sheet without butter and cook the oats in a microwave with water then add milk or whatever.

    At first I thought that this was too much work for a bowl of oatmeal. And I am certainly not going to wait hours to have a bowl in the evening. But I tried this recipe for an overnight breakfast during lockdown while I don't have to rush out of the door in the morning, and I have have to say it is pretty good. No joke about those irresistible toasted oats coated in butter. I used alternative milk and my topping with the crunchy toasted oats was peanut butter and raisins one serving; and yogurt and kiwi on another serving. So much better than over night cold soppy oatmeal. And I found it more filling. Not saying that I will do it regularly, but definitely an occassoinal treat.

    good morning Nicole:)
    strangely enough I had to think about you and your channel yesterday. and the thought crossed my mind how great it would be if you could share more recipes along with information about the ingredients with us.
    turns out my wish came true 😊

    I took your idea and made it into overnight oats. I toasted a cup of rolled oats in 2.5 tbs butter and added a 1/8 cup to the top of each of my mason jar overnight oats. in the jar I put 1 tsp cinnamon, a drop of vanilla bean paste, 1/2 cup of oats and 1 cup of milk (mine had coconut almond milk) and pinch of salt for my HB. I added a tsp of chia seed and Flax seed to mine. It sits in the fridge overnight and at 4-6am when I get up to put my dogs out I pop it in the pressure cooker on low pressure for 2 minutes & go back to bed. When we get up it's hot and ready to top as desired & eat.

    I like to eat my oatmeal the same day I start it. That's why I shamelessly prepare the instant variety from that Pennsylvania guy. I refuse to apologize for NOT being OCD but I will ask forgiveness for being lazy. The raisin, date, and maple variety are my absolute favorite so, after following package directions, all I need to add are a pat of butter, a tablespoon of brown sugar, and (hold on to your hats) instead of milk, a large scoop of Maple Nut ice cream. Let it melt and you'll have breakfast in the Hall of the Viking Heroes! (No, you're still alive but it just makes you feel heroic.)

    I'm not a big fan of porridge but I love baked oats. I tried this baked oats recipe that called for butter and the flavor wasn't any better than a recipe without butter so I stopped using it.
    I tried your hack by using the butter to toast the oats instead of adding it to the wet ingredients towards the end and it completely *transformed* the recipe! It was absolutely delicious. I will definitely toast my oats with butter from time to time .

    Butter has so much artery-damaging saturated fat. Nothing wrong with overnight oats which take their good flavor from the delicious fruit toppings you choose and are so much easier to make.

      which oats are you getting ? if you are using the instant ones or the quick cooking, try the rolled or steel cuts instead, they are healthier and taste so much better, on the flipside they take longer too cook though.

    Nicole is right, eating oatmeal for breakfast will make you happier than eating any other food. Why? Oatmeal is also a herb. Medicinally, oatmeal was and is used for healing the skin, intestinal illness, nerve problems, and uterine complaints, among others.

    I don’t like the taste of overnight oats so I’m excited to try this. I just did the same with 2 tsps of ghee instead of butter and the oats smelled delicious. Can’t wait for the morning to taste it. Right now I have soaked it I’m regular milk. Can I use coconut milk instead and can I boil it in the morning if it’s coconut milk? Please advice. Right now the whole house is smelling good 🤩
