Ingredients
- 2 cups milk of choice almond, cashew, oat, or regular
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup steel cut oats
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree NOT pumpkin pie mix
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Optional Toppings: chopped pecans, raisins, dried cranberries, scoop of nut butter, splash of milk, etc.
Instructions
- Spray your slow cooker with a cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on high for 4 hours, or overnight on low for 7-8 hours. Your Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal is ready when the oats are soft but not too mushy. Serve with your favorite toppings (chopped nuts, raisins, a splash of milk, etc) and enjoy!

Notes
- *Nutrition facts do not include optional toppings.
- Spray your slow cooker very well with nonstick spray or use a crockpot liner. Oatmeal can get very sticky in the crockpot.
- Only use steel cut oats. Steel cut oats take longer to cook than rolled or old fashioned oats, and can hold up to longer periods of cooking time in the crockpot. Other types of oats will turn to mush after hours cooking in the crockpot. No bueno! Steel cut oats have a phenomenal texture and slightly nutty flavor, too. They're delicious!
- Toppings: I love to add a splash of milk or cream to my bowl of pumpkin spice oatmeal and top it off with chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans, plus dried fruit like raisins or cranberries, or even pumpkin seeds. Sliced bananas or a scoop of nut butter on top are delicious also!
