I found this recipe for overnight oatmeal when searching online. I made it on a Saturday night to wake up to on a Sunday morning before church. It smelled delicious in my entire kitchen! It was a very hearty breakfast and I cannot wait to make it again!
The following info is taken from a blog called "Mommy's Kitchen"
These are the ingredients you will need:Steele Cut Oats, Dried Apples or a fresh apple, half and half or milk, water, cinnamon sugar and brown sugar, vanilla extract (not pictured) and some butter which is (optional), your crock pot and a smaller bowl that fits inside of the crock pot. (if using the water bath method)
Measure out one cup of Steele cut oats and add the smaller inner bowl.
Add the four cups of water, milk or half and half, brown sugar, vanilla, butter and cinnamon sugar. If you would like to add dried fruit or a cut up apple add it as well.
Place the lid on your crock pot. Set on low and go to bed. The oatmeal needs to cook on low for about 7-8 hours.
Here is the link to the entire blog post so you can read and see pictures of the process: http://www.mommyskitchen.net/2009/01/overnight-crock-pot-oatmeal.html
I did not use the water bath method because I couldn't fit a bowl into my crockpot. It was quite crusted on the edges the next day, so it was a little difficult to clean. It was so worth it, though!
Let me know what you think if you try it!
