Crockpot Oatmeal

I combined a couple recipes I found online to get this. The recipe is currently written on the back of a library receipt, so I thought I better get it posted before I lose it.

Crockpot Oatmeal

• 1 cup steel cut oats
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp. melted butter
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 cup apple (peeled and chopped)
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 2 cups water
• 2 cups milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla

Combine all ingredients in crockpot and cook on low overnight.
The next morning, stir in:

• 1 cup sliced bananas
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Serve with milk.

This makes a lot, so I make it on the weekend and then have oatmeal for several breakfasts the following week. Jeffrey eats it, even though he doesn't like raisins. I'm thinking of substituting dried apricots next time to see how that turns out.
