Ingredients
  

OATMEAL

  • 1 1/4 cups steel cut oats
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 5 cups water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

PEAR AND MAPLE TOPPING

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 pears, peeled, cored and diced
  • 2 tablespoons currants
  • 1/2 cup shelled pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped
  • maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • OATMEAL: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, toast the oats in the butter for 2 minutes. Add the water and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer gently, uncovered, until the oatmeal thickens and is tender, 25 to 30 minutes, stirring frequently, especially toward the end.
  • PEAR AND MAPLE TOPPING:Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the butter and sugar until they begin to colour. Add the pears and currants. Sauté until the pears are tender and coloured a light gold, about 4 minutes.
  • Serve the hot oatmeal in bowls. Spoon some of the topping onto each portion. Sprinkle with pecans and drizzle with maple syrup.
