Crockpot Oatmeal

Overnight Apple Oatmeal

 

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp butter
• 4 medium apples, peeled and diced  (I like using a quart of my canned apples for ease)
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• 2 tbsp cinnamon  (I use closer to 1TBSP, just my taste preference)
• 2 cups old fashioned oats
• 4 cups water or 3 cups water and 1 cup half and half  (I do 3 cups water and 1 cup milk)

Instructions

1. Break up the butter into small pieces and drop it all around the bottom of a slow cooker. While doing this, wipe down the sides of the cooker with a pat of butter to keep from forming a "crust" along the edges.
2. Cover butter pats with diced apples.
3. Sprinkle cinnamon across the apples
4. Pour sugar over the apples and cinnamon
5. Cover with two cups of oats
6. Gently pour in 4 cups of water, or 3 cups water and 1 cup half-and-half
7. DO NOT STIR
8. Place on low setting and cook overnight, 8-10 hours.
