Ingredients
- 2 apples, chopped (like Fuji, Honeycrisp, Gala, Pink Lady or Granny Smith for a more tart flavor)
- 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 cup steel-cut oats (use gluten-free oats to keep the recipe gluten free)
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 cups water
Optional toppings:
- splash of milk, diced apple, cinnamon, chopped nuts, or maple syrup
Instructions
- Spray the inside of the slow cooker generously with cooking spray. Place the chopped apples, cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup, and oats in the bottom.
- Pour the milk and water in and stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or until the oats are fully cooked and oatmeal has a creamy consistency.
- Spoon oatmeal into bowls and add any desired toppings like a splash of milk, diced apple, cinnamon, chopped nuts, or maple syrup.
Notes
- crockpot liner
- vanilla protein powder
- high protein overnight oats
- Make sure you use traditional steel-cut oats in this crock pot oatmeal. Do not use quick-cooking steel-cut oats or rolled oats- they cook too quickly and will get mushy in the slow cooker.
- Be sure to grease the bowl of your crockpot well so that the oats don't stick to the walls or get scorched. You can use a crockpot liner to make clean up super easy.
- The first time you make this dish, check on your oats to make sure they're not getting overcooked or too dry. Different slow cookers cook at different speeds so the final cook time may vary.
- Stir some vanilla protein powder into the dish for an extra boost of protein. Or try my high protein overnight oats.
- Leftover oatmeal can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. To reheat, add a splash of milk and heat in the microwave. The oatmeal can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
