Prep time: 15 min. Cook time: 5 hr.

Ingredients:

• 2 apples (cored, peeled and diced) (I don’t peel them if organic)
• 1 1/2 c. coconut milk
• 1 1/2 c. water
• 1 c. steel cut oats
• 1 T. brown sugar
• 1 T. sucanat (or another T. brown sugar)
• 1 T. coconut oil
• 1 t. cinnamon
• 1/4 t. salt

Toppings

raisins, pecans, walnuts, apples, bananas, ec.

Instructions

1. Spray the inside of your slow cooker with oil thoroughly (very IMPORTANT)
2. Add all ingredients except your toppings to the slow cooker.
3. Cook on low for 5-7 hours, depending on your cooker. Some take longer and some are faster. We recommend trying a test run during the day to see how long yours takes before trying overnight.

Notes

Serves 6-8 Be sure to use STEEL CUT OATS. These are heartier and take longer to cook so they are better for slow cooking.

Experiment with different flavors and fruits.

I make this on top of the stove using quick cooking steel cut oats. I’ve not tried it in the slow cooker but the quick cooking version is delicious!
