Crock Pot Fruited Oatmeal

I did 2c. milk and 1c. water with 1 c. oats. I did not like the texture at all. There was nothing texturally left of the oats. It was more like flavored cream of something. The flavor was OK but did not meet my expectations at all.

Full of flavor! Nice to have breakfast ready when getting up. Texture was a little "gummy". I think a little more liquid would solve it. Nice recipe. Prepared for the 2008 Spring Cameraless Chef Event.

for a better texture, try steel cut oats, instead of rolled oats or quick oats. use a 3:1 liquid to oats ratio and put them with fruit & nuts in your crock pot on low for 8 hrs (right before you to go bed)

I used a 3:1 ratio of liquid to oats as well - 6 cups of water (instead of milk) and 2 cups of oats. I tossed in some dried fruit - blueberries, cherries, cranberries - added the brown sugar, butter, salt, cinnamon and a splash of vanilla extract, and let it cook all night. YUMMY! It was so nice to have a hot breakfast ready and waiting when I got up. I'll be using this recipe again - thanks so much for sharing!
