Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons dairy butter or vegan butter
  • 1 cup steel-cut oats
  • 1 cup whole or unflavored
  • unsweetened nondairy milk
  • 3 cups water
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup Roasted
  • Mashed Butternut Squash
  • Well-stirred tahini
  • Maple syrup
  • Brown sugar
  • Flaky salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then add the oats.

  2. 2

    Cook, stirring often, until they smell toasty and have darkened a shade, 3 to 4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Watch that they don’t burn.

  4. 4

    Pour in the milk and water and add the salt.

  5. 5

    Bring to a boil, then stir once, partially cover the pan, and reduce to a gentle simmer.

  6. 6

    Cook for 20 minutes.

  7. 7

    Stir in the squash, then remove from the heat. (The oatmeal will thicken as it cools; stir in additional water or milk when reheating.) To serve, spoon the hot oatmeal into bowls.

  8. 8

    For each serving, drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons tahini, 1 to 2 teaspoons maple syrup, a small spoonful of brown sugar, and a good pinch of flaky salt.
