SLOW-COOKER STEEL-CUT OATS
This is a practically effortless way to have a hot breakfast ready to go the moment you wake up. The trick to cooking perfect steel-cut oats in the slow cooker is to make use of the auto-warm setting, which switches on when the set cook time is over. (The majority of modern slow cookers have this function, though some older ones may not.) Cooking the oatmeal on low for two hours, then on warm for up to six more ensures very creamy, risotto-like oats that have a pleasant chew. (You can also cook the oats on low for 4 hours, then immediately serve, but if you venture any longer than that, the oats may overcook.) Think of this as a whole-grain meal that you can take in any sweet or savory direction you like: Top with a pat of butter and a squeeze of honey, or a sprinkle of salt and a bit of hot sauce, or any of the topping suggestions below.

Steps:
- In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the oats, salt and 4 cups water. Cover and set the cook time to 2 hours on low, at which point the slow cooker will automatically switch to warm. Cook on warm until the oatmeal is creamy and tender, about 6 more hours. (The 6 hours on warm is not optional; the oats will not be done after 2 hours on low. If you wish to cook them more quickly, you can cook for 4 to 5 hours total on low.) Ladle into bowls and serve with the toppings of your choice.

Steps:
- Coat slow cooker with non-stick spray (I use coconut oil).
- Add all ingredients to slow cooker.
- Stir.
- Cook on LOW for 7 hours.
- Add garnish of your choice (ex. hemp hearts, nuts, berries, raisins, coconut, etc.).
- Freezes well.
Tips:
- Use a slow cooker with a timer function: This will allow you to set the cooker to start cooking at a specific time, so you can wake up to a warm and delicious breakfast.
- Choose the right steel-cut oats: There are two types of steel-cut oats: regular and quick-cooking. Regular steel-cut oats take longer to cook, but they have a chewier texture. Quick-cooking steel-cut oats cook more quickly, but they have a softer texture.
- Rinse the oats before cooking: This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
- Use a ratio of 1 cup oats to 3 cups liquid: This will result in a creamy and porridge-like consistency.
- Add your favorite flavors: You can add fruits, nuts, spices, or sweeteners to your oatmeal. Some popular add-ins include apples, bananas, berries, walnuts, pecans, cinnamon, and maple syrup.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker overnight steel-cut oats with apples is a delicious and easy breakfast recipe that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to start your day with a healthy and nutritious meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious and satisfying breakfast ready to enjoy in the morning.
