Single Serve Slow Cooker Oatmeal
Ingredients
Scale
- For One Serving of Oatmeal (multiply as needed)
- 1 glass jar
- 1/4 cup chopped apples
- 2 Tbsp raisins
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 4–5 pecans, chopped
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup oats
Instructions
- Line up your jars on the kitchen counter and layer your ingredients as follows: fruit #1, 1/4 cup oats, fruit #2 / seeds, spices / sweetener, 1/4 cup oats. Do NOT add the nuts yet.
- Add enough water JUST to cover the oats. If you like it thick oatmeal, you want the water just to cover the oats. If you like runnier oats, add an extra tablespoon or two.
- Next up, place all your jars in the slow cooker. Fill the slow cooker – not the jars – with water so that the water line is at the top of the oats in the jar.
- Put on the cover and set the slow cooker on low for 4 hours before you go to bed. If the slow cooker turns off or to warm, that’s fine. It won’t effect the oatmeal.
- Add the nuts in the morning. Stir if you’d like, and enjoy!
Notes
If you prefer to have oats freshly cooked, assemble the oatmeal and jars in the slow cooker, and add water to the slow cooker but NOT to the oats. Add that water in the morning and cook on high for 60-90 minutes.
