  1. Bring one cup of steel cut oats and roughly five cups of filtered water to a rapid boil; stir and then cover the pot and remove it from the heat.
  2. Five minutes later, stir the mix and bring it back up to another rolling boil; then off heat once more.
  3. After another five minute rest, add a large shredded carrot, a large fistful of raisins, a fistful of minced walnuts, and a large minced Granny Smith apple.
  4. Bring it back to a bubbling state.
  5. Cover the pot, continue on and off heat until it reaches the desired consistency.
  6. Note: Initially, it will seem quite wet, but over time, it will thicken. It can be kept on very low heat for another 10 minutes to thicken, if desired.
  7. The oatmeal freezes easily and returns to normal with a day in the fridge.
