Day 38.
I'm participating in Slow Cooker Thursday today. Make sure you check out the recipes submitted by the other crockpot crazies--and if you have a recipe you'd like to share, add it to the list!
Sandra has a theme for this week--breakfast. I was a bit over-zealous the last time I tried to make a crockpot breakfast, so I stuck to easy, simple and healthy with this recipe.
This doesn't taste like dirt. I promise.
The Ingredients:
--1 cup of oats
--2 cups of milk
--2 tablespoons of brown sugar
--1 tablespoon of vanilla (I have no idea where my vanilla went in that picture)
--pinch of salt
--1 chopped apple (there are 2 pictured, but after chopping up the green one I thought it was plenty of apple. I was right.)
The Directions:
--add oats, chopped apple and milk to stoneware
--put in brown sugar, vanilla and pinch of salt
--mix with finger. or a spoon. whatever.
--cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours or low for 2-3.
--check consistency of oats--some people like to chew, some people don't.
--garnish with some cinnamon
I cooked this batch on high for 1:15 hrs. It was creamy and milky; the kids and I really enjoyed it and ate it all up ourselves. I would probably double or at least increase the ingredients by 50% next time--especially if Adam was home.
