Anyone made oatmeal in the crock pot?
If so, how was it? I got a new crock pot recipe magazine last night and it has a lot of delicious sounding oatmeal concoctions in it and some recipes say to cook it for 2-3 hours and some for more like 6 hours. Any tips? Does it dry out too much? TIA!

Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Strawberry Filling
Can you just use the timer so it switches off to warm? That's what I was planning on doing. Good to know about the steel cut oats.
Probably but I have a poor woman's Crockpot--no timer.

I've made this a few times...I didn't use steel cut oats and it was still really good.
It's a HG recipe.
Crock-Pot Cinna-Apples 'n Oats
This sweet 'n satisfying dish is like the love child of gooey cinnamon apples and brown sugaroatmeal. It's perfect for breakfast, dessert, or snack time. Yay!!!
Ingredients:
8 cups chopped Fuji apples (about 6 apples)
2 tbsp. brown sugar (not packed), divided
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, divided
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup light vanilla soymilk
1/3 cup sugar-free pancake syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. light whipped butter or light buttery spread (like Brummel & Brown)
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix apples with 1 tbsp. brown sugar and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Stir to coat apples well. Transfer to the crock pot.
In the empty bowl, combine oats, soymilk, 1 tbsp. brown sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon, syrup, and salt. (All remaining ingredients except butter.) Add 1 cup water and mix well.
Add oat mixture to the crock pot, and gently stir. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 7 hours.
Add butter and mix well. (Do NOT forget this step. Stick a Post-it to your timer if you have to!) Serve and enjoy!
MAKES 5 SERVINGS
That sounds great AK! I'm printing that off now.
So I made a recipe last night with steel cut oats, maple syrup, craisins, golden raisins, dried peaches, cinnamon and vanilla. I had the crockpot set for 6 hours and then it probably was on warm for 2 hours. It was a little too sweet but the consistency was good so I think I'll try something simpler next time. Thanks!
