It's so nice to have breakfast all ready when you wake up with this slow cooker peaches and cream steel-cut oatmeal. Peaches seem to be our favorite flavor in this oatmeal, but any fruit works. Make it your own by adding your favorite toppings like chopped walnuts, cream, additional brown sugar, cinnamon, butter, etc.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 3 cups water

  • 1 cup steel-cut oats

  • 1 cup milk

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (Optional)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup diced fresh peaches

Directions

  1. Place water, oats, milk, butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt in an oven-safe bowl; place into the bottom of a slow cooker. Fill slow cooker with water up to bowl's water level. Cover slow cooker.

  2. Cook on Low until oats are tender, 6 to 8 hours.

  3. Stir in peaches and juices. Cover; continue cooking on Low until warmed, about 30 minutes. Serve.

Cook's Notes:

Do not substitute anything for steel-cut oats.

You can use half-and-half instead of milk, margarine instead of butter, and canned or frozen peaches instead of fresh.

The oven-safe bowl placed inside the slow cooker prevents the oatmeal from drying out. Not to mention, it is much easier to clean the bowl. It sort of makes a double boiler.
