We all like breakfast in bed, right? Now there's a safer way to get your B-in-B fix. And it's healthier, too.
Overnight Oatmeal
Servings: 4
Preparation: 10 minutes
Cook time: 8-9 hours
So the original recipe is from HERE, but I changed it a little. My recipe is below. Next time I'm going to try dried mango pieces and coconut milk instead cranberries and half-and-half.
1 C steel cut oats
1 C dried cranberries
1/2 C applesauce
4 C water
1/2 C half-and-half (next time I'm trying almond milk or coconut milk)
Directions:
In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients and set to low heat. Cover and let cook for 8 to 9 hours.
Stir and remove to serving bowls. This method works best if started before you go to bed. This way your oatmeal will be finished by morning.
I added fresh raspberries to mine this morning and it was SO GOOD.
My next flavor: Coconut Mango. I'll use coconut milk instead of half-and-half and I'll use dried mangoes instead of cranberries. Really, the possibilities are endless! I'll try to post my different concoctions as I try them.
