Pumpkin Pie Steel-cut Oatmeal

I enjoy steel-cut oatmeal for breakfast. It’s a healthful meal, but on its own, day after day, it can be bland and boring. So I’m trying to spruce it up a bit. Today’s experiment was for a chilly, rainy fall day: pumpkin pie oatmeal.

I prefer steel-cut oatmeal to regular (rolled) or instant oatmeal. I think it’s healthier – I also think it’s got a more interesting flavor and texture. It takes a little more care though, and takes longer to cook.
