Ingredients

Scale

2 large apples, diced (any kind)
1 1/2 cups steel cut oats
4 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk*
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp unsalted butter
3 tbsp pure maple syrup
pinch of salt

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Line a 3-4 quart crockpot with parchment paper,** or spray with non-stick spray. Combine all of the ingredients into crockpot and give it a stir, ensuring the oats and apple pieces are covered by the milk. Turn the crockpot to LOW and cook for 7-8 hours
Before serving, give the mixture a stir. Dish into bowls and top with additional syrup, honey or apple pieces. Enjoy!

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge, in an airtight container, for 2-3 days. I would add a bit of extra milk before re-heating.

Notes

*Vanilla almond milk tastes the best in this recipe. You can also use regular almond milk or regular dairy milk!

**As per my post above, lining the crockpot will make your life SO much easier in terms of cleanup!!
