Preparation

Step 1

Oatmeal:

Coat a slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray (or a crock-pot liner).

Combine milk, water, the oats, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar and the salt in slow cooker. Cover and cook overnight on LOW for 9-1/2 to 10 hours.

Uncover and stir in remaining 1/4 c brown sugar. Set aside.

Stir oatmeal, spoon about 1 cup into bowls and top with desired toppings.

**It was too soupy, I added some quick cook oats. Next time, use less water or more steel-cut oats.
