A super-simple way to get a hearty breakfast on the table without any work! This recipe was inspired by an overnight maple and brown sugar oatmeal on MelsKitchenCafe.com (http://www.melskitchencafe.com). Make sure to use steel-cut oats, otherwise you'll end up with a pot of gummy paste.

Steps:
- Coat the inside of a 4-5 quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
- Combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker and stir. I find it helpful to mix the brown sugar with the cinnamon; the cinnamon gets better incorporated and doesn't separate from the mix as much.
- Cook for 7-8 hours on low.
- Stir thoroughly before serving with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
- Serve immediately.
- Refrigerate leftovers; reheat with a splash of milk.
- *This recipe is easily cut in half for smaller slow-cookers. A time of 4 hours is optimal.

Steps:
- 1. Combine all ingredients except the oats and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add oats and mix well. 2. Transfer mixture to a buttered 9 inch baking dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight. 3. Remove baking dish from fridge. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Uncover the oatmeal and bake for 27 minutes or until just firm in the center. 4. Remove oatmeal from oven, set oven to broil, and sprinkle brown sugar over top of oatmeal. Broil for a minute, watching very closely, or until the topping is melted and lightly browned. 5. Serve with warmed milk, chopped nuts or fresh fruit. 6. Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator.
Tips:
- Use a slow cooker: This is the easiest way to make overnight oatmeal. Simply combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker before bed, and it will be ready to eat in the morning.

- Use your favorite toppings: Once your overnight oatmeal is cooked, you can top it with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include berries, nuts, seeds, and yogurt.
