Ingredients
- 1.5 cups steel cut oats do not substitute quick cooking, instant, or rolled oats, gluten free if needed
- 4 cups water
- 2 cups milk any kind you like (I used skim)
- 2 large mashed ripe bananas plus additional banana slices for serving
- 3 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal*
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg it's an amazing flavor upgrade to grate your own nutmeg. I use this zester to do it.
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- For serving: chopped toasted walnuts raisins, chocolate chips, maple syrup, peanut butter, or any other mix-ins you enjoy with banana bread
Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients except the toppings in the bottom of a 4-to-6-quart slow cooker and stir to combine: Steel cut oats, water, milk, mashed bananas, flaxseed meal, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours (overnight) or on high for 4 hours, until the oats are soft but maintain a bit of chew. Remove cover and stir to evenly combine the ingredients. Enjoy warm with desired toppings.
Notes
- Overnight steel cut oats can be refrigerated for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 2 months. To reheat, top desired amount with a few tablespoons of water or milk, then warm in the microwave or in a small saucepan until hot. If the oatmeal is frozen, let thaw overnight in the refrigerator first.
- *The ground flaxseed meal I added for a nutritional boost. If you don't have it or do not wish to add it, simply omit it. You can also substitute chia seeds or hulled hemp seeds.
