Alton Brown Steel Cut Oatmeal Food

THE OATIEST OATMEAL COOKIES EVER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the oats into a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 20 minutes. Cool the oats for 2 to 3 minutes on the sheet. Grind 8 ounces of the toasted oats in a food processor until they have the consistency of whole-wheat flour, about 3 minutes. Add the baking powder, cinnamon and salt to the food processor and pulse 2 to 3 times to combine. Set aside.
• Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine the butter and sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on medium speed using the paddle attachment until light in color, about 3 minutes. Stop once to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Reduce the mixer speed to the lowest speed and add the vanilla extract and egg. Mix to combine. Slowly add the flour mixture until just combined. Stop once to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the remaining toasted oats and the raisins, if using, and mix to combine.
• Scoop the dough with a 1 1/2-tablespoon disher onto the baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each mound. Bake until the cookies begin to brown around the edges, 12 to 14 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Cool on the sheets for 2 minutes, and then move to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch down the dough, shape it into a loaf, and put it into a lightly oiled 9 by 5-inch loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the egg yolk and water in a small bowl. Lightly brush the top of the loaf with egg wash and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon toasted, uncooked oats.

• Heat butter in pot or pan. Continue cooking, while stirring frequently, on medium until it's a hazelnut color, but do not burn it.
• Add all the oats to the browned butter, leaving it on medium heat.
• Add cinnamon sticks to this.
• Stir oats/cinnamon sticks frequently until the oats darken. It should be smelling pretty good.
• Add all the oat milk.
• Bring the mix to a boil while stirring.
• Once it boils, reduce heat to low and let simmer for maybe 25-30 minutes covered. You can stir occasionally, and if it sticks to the bottom, don't worry, it's still good.
• Remove the lid and add brown sugar. Keep simmering uncovered for another 10 or 15 minutes, until the oats are thicker and soft. You do still want to have a bit of fluid at this point, though, so the next step doesn't make it too dry.
• Add wheat germ. This gives it a bit of flavor and texture, as well as some health benefits. The wheat germ should take up some of the fluid and make it somewhat thick now.
• Let cool for a few minutes until it's warm, not hot. Add eggs and vanilla and stir. At this point, it should have a traditional porridge consistency, as the eggs add wetness.
• Enjoy!
