Crockpot Apple Pie Breakfast Oats

 

I have been wanting to try making breakfast in the crockpot for a while.  I am so glad I did, the house smelled wonderful this morning after breakfast cooked overnight while we slept! I made a few changes to a wonderful recipe I found here, and we have a new family favorite.

 

Here is what I did:

 

I greased the inside of my crockpot (cooking spray works well too) and added the following, cooking on low for 8 hours.  This may vary depending on your crockpot:

 

1 cup of Gluten Free Steel Cut oats

3 apples (I used Fuji-Granny Smith would work great too) peeled, cored, and cut into small cubes

1 1/2 cups water

1 1/2 cups of low fat milk

4 T. butter, cut into small chunks

1 1/2 t. ground cinnamon

1/2 t. ground nutmeg

4 T. brown sugar

Dash of salt

 

Stir and cover, cooking overnight until done.  I like to serve mine with a little milk, but you could also top with raisins, nuts, or anything you like to put on oatmeal.

 

I will be making this often, it was like having a healthy bowl of apple pie with my morning coffee.

 

Happy cooking

 

xoxo, Tanya
