Instructions

1. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil*.
2. Add the steel cut oats and reduce heat to medium.
3. Stir in the raisins.
4. Add the chopped apple and stir again.
5. Cook for 25 minutes (or 10 -12 minutes if using the tip below*) uncovered or until it is thickened.
6. Sprinkle with cinnamon, drizzle with maple syrup and add pecans for the final touch. Enjoy. (***Tip: Put the steel cut oats & water in the saucepan the night before you plan to cook it. In the morning bring it to a boil, reduce to medium heat and then start with step 3 - the oats will be softened and will cook in half the time!***)
