Has anyone made steel cut oats? If so how? Thanks Bonnie

Using the supplied rice cup. For every 1 cup oats, add 2.5 cups of water (or adjust to personal preference). Select the porridge setting. Let cooking cycle complete, then mix in any flavourings/fruit before serving.

I am not sure about the difference these and the steel cut, all I remember about these is that they did win a championship where the Scottish kind was also in the competition, Bob's Redmill is the new Golden Spurtle World Porridge champion. I feel is the best 'out of the box' and healthy cereal we can get, I also buy the 'gluten free' kind for a family member, we could not find any other brand better than Bob's.

No instructions on box to pre-wash since the dirty outside hulls removed (unlike whole brown rice, which should be pre-washed unless labelled pre-washed). We like these oats not only for gluten-free but also chewy nutty quality---though more water &/or presoaking can make "creamier"--and presoaking shortens steelcut cooking time as well as pre-sprouts steelcut for enhanced nutrition & digestability. We presoak night before in crockpot or rice cooker, then stir in salt & cook quickly on high. A commenter said add raw oats or buckwheat groats to pre-sprout since oats pre-heating destroys the phytase enzyme; but I expect only steamrolled "rolled" oats are pre-heated, not the dehulled steelcut mfr would need to confirm, so in meantime we add raw oats or raw buck"wheat"(not actually wheat, but a legume) groats to these cheaper steelcut for pre-sprouting during the presoak. Next I'm trying non-GMO gluten-free steelcut oats from VitaCost. Hopefully someone soon will sell affordable organic (non-GMO), gluten-free steelcut.

Oatmeal is made by slicing (with steel blades) or rolling (between rollers) the groats, so no, I think the best you could do would be a course oat flour. Oat flour would be a great addition to baked products though.

I make steel cut oats several times a week and it comes out perfect. I use a 1:4 ratio of oats to water, usually 1/2 cup of oats in the Zojirushi measuring cup, on the porridge setting. Some water will boil over so I fold a paper towel and put in under the rear edge of the top vent where it catches most of the water. Cooking more than 1/2 cups oats at a time might result in much more boil over. Recently tried a 1:3 ratio and oats seem just as good with much less boil over.

After reviewing Amazon's list of consumer comments, I determined the ideal recipe to be 1 Zoji cup McCann's steel cut oats to 2 1/2 Zoji cups of water. I set the 'menu' to 'porridge.'61 minutes later, I had a perfect bowl of thick oats {I prefer my oats thick}.My second attempt was a disaster! I learned the cooker defaults to 'white rice' when you turn it off. It promptly boiled over spewing oat milk all over.So, the machine makes perfect thick creamy steel cut oats. Just remember to ALWAYS make sure the 'menu' is set to 'porridge' before pressing the 'cooking' button.

I haven't been able to. Using as little as ¾ cup steel cut oats, on either brown or white rice settings, the water ALWAYS boils over, getting starchy water all over the top of the rice cooker and spilling onto the counter. I've determined a larger rice cooker is needed to make oats for 2 people. If others can do it, I'd love to know how.

I think if the meat was already cooked it would be fine. I've not cooked non rice dishes in it yet. My daughter makes steel cut oats in it and it comes out great.

No. I boil it in water for a few minutes and then usually some regular oats for another couple of minutes boiling or med. heat. The steel cut oats then give the cereal a nice texture and flavor. Enjoy!

I'm eating Bob's Red Mill steel cut oats right now, prepared in a regular stainless pot, same as every morning and they are delicious! Crock pot sounds a bit longer than my usual 20 minutes.

Yes! I do it all the time. I like the "layering" method: chopped up fresh or frozen fruit (like 1 med apple), then dry oats (1/2 cup, I use regular old fashioned), then any add ins like raisins, salt, sugar, cinnamon, (to taste) pour water over the top (1 cup) - no stirring! Just leave it like that. It never burns, but can dry out depending on the time. I like to use an old analog plug timer so it turns on about 4 hours before I get up. Seems to be perfect!

Taste is a bit more nutty than rolled oats. However, nutritionally, steel cut oats are a whole grain where as the quick oats are more processed and not the complete whole grain oat. Quick oats are alright, but we prefer the whole grain steel cut oats as they provide more fiber and nutrition in our diets.

From what I've seen you'll need a really sharp knife and a gentle touch. I made some without the nori (seaweed) and it was tough to keep it perfectly circular, but it did work. I haven't specifically tried what your asking, but I bet you could get it to work. That's actually what I'm going to try next, I've been meaning to do this and then roll it in sesame seeds. :-)

I've done oranges and pineapples and you just have to cut into smaller pieces. It works fine.

Contact the manufacturer. These steel cut oats are wonderful in taste and smell.

Hi Lulu-No but you can go on line and get many different recipes. I do have an old family recipe that I would share if you are interested. It is short and simple. just send me your e-mail address

Yes. Make the batter the day before. Cover and allow to sit overnight in refrigerator. This will allow oats to absorb moisture. Before using, add additional milk/water to obtain right consistency.
