Crock Pot Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Hi everyone!Thought I would share another super easy (and healthy!) recipe with you all! Now, I know that oatmeal is not a time consuming item to make. But, I will save ANY time I can in the morning. Upon waking, my baby, F., wants to be held by Mommy. ( I think he misses me at night :) ) My oldest son, M., just wants to eat in the morning! And he would like oatmeal. Every. Day. As I have mentioned, we try to avoid grains and refined sugars, so I have been looking for new tricks to entice him. I saw this recipe on Pinterest and decided to tweak it to fit for my family.
 Enjoy!

Crock Pot Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

 First- butter the bottom of the crock pot. This oatmeal will stick to the pot and be a nasty mess! You can use coconut oil or butter.

 Slice up two apples and place them in the bottom of the crock pot.









Add 1/4 cup of brown sugar (I used coconut sugar),
1 tsp of cinnamon
pinch of salt
Pour 2 cups of oatmeal (gluten free if you have them!)
2 cups of milk (I used almond/coconut milk)
2 cups of water.

Do NOT stir the mixture.
Place on LOW for 8 to 9 hours.
In the morning, I added honey and cinnamon and a splash of coconut milk.
It was super delish! The family ate it up!

Hope you enjoy making this!
