Step 1
1. To prepare oatmeal cutlets, start by preparing the oats. Pour 1 cup of boiling water or broth (vegetable, meat, or even mushroom broth can be used) over the oats and let them steep for at least 2 hours. The longer they sit, the softer the cutlets will be. You can even leave them overnight.
