A super-simple way to get a hearty breakfast on the table without any work! This recipe was inspired by an overnight maple and brown sugar oatmeal on ( ). Make sure to use steel-cut oats, otherwise you'll end up with a pot of gummy paste. Ingredients:
6 cups apple cider (add 1-2 cups of water if you like thin oatmeal) |
2 cups steel cut oats |
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar (up to 1/4 cup, depending on preferred sweetness ) |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Coat the inside of a 4-5 quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
2. Combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker and stir. I find it helpful to mix the brown sugar with the cinnamon; the cinnamon gets better incorporated and doesn't separate from the mix as much.
3. Cook for 7-8 hours on low.
4. Stir thoroughly before serving with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
5. Serve immediately.
6. Refrigerate leftovers; reheat with a splash of milk.
7. *This recipe is easily cut in half for smaller slow-cookers. A time of 4 hours is optimal.
