SLOW-COOKER STEEL-CUT OATS
This is a practically effortless way to have a hot breakfast ready to go the moment you wake up. The trick to cooking perfect steel-cut oats in the slow cooker is to make use of the auto-warm setting, which switches on when the set cook time is over. (The majority of modern slow cookers have this function, though some older ones may not.) Cooking the oatmeal on low for two hours, then on warm for up to six more ensures very creamy, risotto-like oats that have a pleasant chew. (You can also cook the oats on low for 4 hours, then immediately serve, but if you venture any longer than that, the oats may overcook.) Think of this as a whole-grain meal that you can take in any sweet or savory direction you like: Top with a pat of butter and a squeeze of honey, or a sprinkle of salt and a bit of hot sauce, or any of the topping suggestions below.

Steps:
- In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the oats, salt and 4 cups water. Cover and set the cook time to 2 hours on low, at which point the slow cooker will automatically switch to warm. Cook on warm until the oatmeal is creamy and tender, about 6 more hours. (The 6 hours on warm is not optional; the oats will not be done after 2 hours on low. If you wish to cook them more quickly, you can cook for 4 to 5 hours total on low.) Ladle into bowls and serve with the toppings of your choice.

STEEL CUT OATMEAL FOR THE CROCK POT
I love the texture of steel cut oats. You can make this the night before and breakfast is ready in the morning. I like fruit additions, but my kids do not, so I've listed them as optional. Also, it may sound like a lot of water, but trust me, I've experimented..

Steps:
- Place all ingredients in a 2 quart slow cooker. (If you want to make a smaller amount please use a smaller crock pot or crockette. This won't work in a 6 quart cooker).
- Cover and cook on LOW 6-8 hours.

Tips:
- Use a slow cooker with a timer function to ensure your oats are cooked perfectly, even if you're not home.
- For a creamier texture, use whole milk or half-and-half instead of water.
- Add a pinch of salt to the cooking liquid to enhance the flavor of the oats.
- Stir in your favorite mix-ins, such as nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or spices, before serving.
- If you like a thicker oatmeal, add an extra 1/4 cup of oats to the slow cooker.
- For a sweeter oatmeal, add an extra tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the slow cooker.
- To make a vegan version of this recipe, use almond milk or soy milk instead of cow's milk and omit the butter.
