This has been, and will be, my breakfast. My friend, Tasya, gave me the recipe, so I made it while my parents were here, and am still enjoying it. I doubled the recipe because I have a 6 qt crockpot, but for all you 2-4 qt crockpot peeps, this recipe is as is.
1 1/2 cups steel-cut oats (Irish oats, McCann’s, etc)
4 3/4 cups water
3/4 cup maple syrup (not pancake syrup, this is much less flavorful and more watery than real maple syrup)
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c dried cranberries
1 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. salt
Stir together in crockpot, turn on low for 6-7 hours. Enjoy. I topped mine with cool whip and/or milk. Other additives would be walnuts, chopped dried apples, dried pears…
This sounds really good.. thanx for posting
I want to make this. but unsure of the amount of the steel cut oats? 1 1/5 ?
Sorry, I’ll change that. 1 1/2 cups.
You should include “sharing” buttons….I would like to share this on my facebook for my family, but I don’t see buttons that are usually visible. =(
I am switching everything to a new website and will include those in it. Thank you for letting me know. Thank you for looking at the recipe. And what I do is copy the website address and paste it in an email! 🙂 Enjoy!
Wanting to try it! Looks good and we LOVE oatmeal!
