For the oats:
3 cups water
1 cup low-fat milk
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup steel-cut oats
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
For serving:
4-6 tablespoons chocolate hazelnut spread
Fresh sliced strawberries
Combine the water and milk in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a 10- or 12-inch skillet set over medium heat. Add the oats and toast, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes or until golden and fragrant.
Stir the oats into the simmering liquid and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer gently until the oat mixture has thickened significantly, about 20 minutes. Stir in the salt and brown sugar and continue cooking for about 10 minutes, until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the oatmeal is creamy. Remove from heat and allow to sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
Portion the oatmeal into serving bowls and top with 1 tablespoon of chocolate hazelnut spread and swirl gently into the oats using a spoon or knife. Top with a handful of strawberries and serve immediately.
