I have to apologize for not having a picture of this. It’s been a while since I have made this for my family. I will make it soon and add a pictures.

For the Oatmeal

• Crockpot (I recommend the Rival 5-Quart Smart-Pot Slow Cooker)
• 3 cups of Steel Cup Oats (DO NOT USE QUICK OATS OR REGULAR OATMEAL. YOU WILL HAVE MUSH IF YOU DO)
• 8 cups of water
• 2 cups of fat-free Evaporated Milk
• 2 cups of Skim Milk
• 1/2 cup of Brown Sugar
• 1.5 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1 stick of butter
• 1 large apple and 1 large pear (optional)

(Makes 8 servings)

To ensure that the oatmeal does not stick to the crockpot, spray it with cooking spray. Place all ingredients in the crockpot starting with the liquids first. I find that it cooks better if the liquids although I can’t really explain why. Place the butter in last. Cook on low for at least 6 hours. I cook it overnight. When you awake in the morning add slice the apples and pears and add it to the pot and cook for 30 minutes.

For the Toast

• Lightly toast 8 slices of bread in the toaster
• Place them on a cookie sheet
• Put 2 slabs of butter on each piece of bread
• Sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar

Place cookie sheet with bread  in the oven at 375 degrees until toast is hardened Takes about 5-7 minutes.

Serve oatmeal with a slice of cinnamon toast.
