How to Microwave Steel Cut Oats

Steel-cut oats are a nutritious and satisfying breakfast option, and cooking them in the microwave with an Anyday dish is a total game-changer. While this method might seem like it takes a bit of time, it’s entirely hands-off, minimizes the risk of burning, and allows you to store the oats right in the same container you cook them in! Whether you’re meal-prepping for the week or just need a quick breakfast solution, the Anyday dish is ideal for cooking oats in bulk. The cooking times are similar to what you’d see on the package, but the water ratios are specifically adjusted for microwave use to ensure your oats turn out perfectly. By lowering the power level, you can prevent any overflow and make sure your oats are properly hydrated.

Customize your oats with your favorite toppings and easily freeze them in convenient portions using the Anytime Freezer Trays. This makes reheating a breeze and shaves tons of time off your morning routine!

All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
