Original recipe found here
salt
1 cup steel cut oats
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 TBSP white sugar
-Bring 4 cups water and salt to a boil over medium-high heat, and stir in the oats, cinnamon and vanilla. Lower the heat and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is very thick, about 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream.
-Preheat the broiler to high. Spoon the oatmeal into a quart-sized baking dish or individual baking cups. With a spatula or the back of a spoon, smooth the oatmeal to make a flat surface.
-Sprinkle the sugar evenly overall. Set the baking dish or cups on a baking sheet and run under the broiler to create a crackly sugar crust, about 3 to 5 minutes, watching so it doesn’t burn, OR use a creme brûlée torch. Remove and serve while hot.
