Steps:
- In a medium bowl mix 1 1/2 cups water, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice.
- Add the oats to a 23-ounce or larger oven-safe bowl (I use Fiestaware or Pyrex are good choices). Pour the pumpkin mixture over the top. Stir. Carefully place bowl in the middle of the Crock Pot and carefully fill Crock Pot with water, to about 1 inch below the rim of the bowl. Sprinkle with pecans.
- Cook on low for 8 hours.
- Turn off Crock Pot and remove lid, allowing the bowl to cool enough to lift out of the Crock Pot. Remove bowl and stir well. Sprinkle pecans and additional brown sugar on individual servings, if desired.
Tips:
- Use a slow cooker liner: This will make cleanup a breeze. Simply lift the liner out of the slow cooker and discard it.
- Add your oats and liquid to the slow cooker before bedtime: This will give the oats plenty of time to absorb the liquid and cook through.
- Customize your oatmeal: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins, such as nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or spices.
- Don't overcook the oatmeal: Oatmeal can quickly become mushy if it's overcooked. Cook it on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.
- Serve the oatmeal with your favorite toppings: Oatmeal is delicious topped with fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, honey, or maple syrup.
Conclusion:
Overnight crock pot oatmeal is a delicious and easy way to start your day. It's a great option for busy families or anyone who wants a healthy and filling breakfast. With a little planning, you can have a hot and delicious breakfast ready and waiting for you in the morning.
