TOASTED OATS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line baking sheet with tin foil, if desired.
• Spread oats in a shallow layer on a cookie sheet.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned, stir occasionally.

TOASTED OATMEAL

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the oats, and toast, tossing and turning oats, until oatmeal is browned and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Add 4 cups water and salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until most of the water has evaporated and the oatmeal is tender, about 30 minutes for the Irish oatmeal and 10 minutes for the old-fashioned rolled oats. Serve hot with the toppings of your choice.

TOASTED OATS COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In medium skillet, over medium heat, heat butter until lightly browned. Be careful not to burn. Add oats; saute, stirring constantly, until golden -- about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; cool.
• Meanwhile, sift flour with cinnamon, salt, and soda; set aside.
• In large bowl, combine sugar, egg, and vanilla. With wooden spoon, or portable electric mixer at medium speed, beat until light.
• Stir in rolled oats and flour mixture until well combined.
• Drop by slightly rounded teaspoonfuls, 3 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Remove to wire rack. Cool.

TOASTED OATMEAL

Steps:

• Melt butter or margarine in a small frying pan over medium/medium low heat.
• Add the oatmeal and stir so that it is evenly coated.
• Cook until the oatmeal starts turning golden brown and a little crunchy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the brown sugar, again stirring well to coat the oatmeal.

• Serve on top of yogurt, or with a small amount of milk or cream.

TOASTED OAT AND NUT GRANOLA

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).

• Divide the mixture among 2 rimmed baking sheets and bake until the granola is golden brown all over, 45 to 55 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool completely on wire racks. Serve or store in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
