Slow Cooker Pumpkin Oatmeal

This is one of my absolute favorites! I woke up to this delicious breakfast cooking away this morning. Effortless and a no brainer for this busy mom. What's better than waking up and breakfast for the entire family cooking itself for you??? Not much! I'm a huge fan of pumpkin from fall to the end of winter and if you are too- then this is a recipe that you will love! Enjoy!! Oh- and if your like me and have a big family you may want to double the recipe. I doubled it and we have enough leftover for tomorrow too!

Ingredients

1 cup steel cut oats

3-1/2 cups water (you can also do half almond milk, half water)

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

optional: 1/2 cup honey or 100% pure maple syrup. You can always add to each portions individually. 

Directions

Combine all ingredients in your slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours. Enjoy!
