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.

SLOW COOKER PUMPKIN STEEL CUT OATS
SO easy and SO good! This is comfort food for me at it's finest, my all-recipe friends! Like pumpkin pie for breakfast, but you don't have to feel guilty for the rest of the day! Use any sweetener you want and adjust to taste. Enjoy! I make up a big batch then reheat for the next mornings in the microwave covered. Vegan. I like to set it with a timer before I go to bed so it is ready in the morning.

OVERNIGHT SLOW COOKER PUMPKIN STEEL CUT OATS
Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in your slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours.
Tips:
- Use equal parts oats and liquid. This is the general rule of thumb for cooking steel-cut oats, but you can adjust the ratio slightly depending on your desired consistency. For a creamier oatmeal, use a little more liquid. For a chewier oatmeal, use a little less liquid.
- Soak the oats overnight. This will help to soften the oats and reduce the cooking time. If you don't have time to soak the oats overnight, you can simply add them to the slow cooker with the other ingredients and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
- Add your favorite mix-ins. Steel-cut oats are a blank canvas for flavor, so feel free to add your favorite mix-ins. Some popular options include berries, nuts, seeds, spices, and sweeteners.
- Cook the oats on low. This will help to prevent the oats from burning or sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Stir the oats occasionally. This will help to ensure that the oats cook evenly. You can also stir in any mix-ins you are using.
Conclusion:
Slow-cooker steel-cut oats are a delicious and easy way to start your day. With a little planning, you can have a hot and hearty breakfast ready and waiting for you when you wake up. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying breakfast option, give slow-cooker steel-cut oats a try.
