Preparation

Step 1

The night before: Spray your crock with some oil to help with clean up later. Add everything except sweetener and lemon zest. Cook on low over night (7 to 9 hours).

In the morning: Stir your oatmeal well. It may seem watery at the top but if stirred it should become a more uniform consistency. If you used fresh blueberries they will have floated to the top of the crock. Just smash them a little with the spoon while you’re mixing the pot to incorporate them into the mix. Stir in sweetener.

Top each serving with lemon zest and more fresh blueberries if you want.
