Our youngest has a gluten allergy so I buy gluten free steel cut oats, which are pricey, but he loves it and that makes it worth the price :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-65947425102083463912011-10-26T08:38:38.018-07:002011-10-26T08:38:38.018-07:00I made this last night and it turned out really we...I made this last night and it turned out really well - though it did stick to the sides of my slow cooker :/ I put in cinnamon and nutmeg last night and this morning added all-natural coconut, flax seed, and a pinch of brown sugar and it's great!

Maybe it's because it's a blandish food and easy on the queasy. <br /><br />In our house, we do that same thing, but with cracked wheat, and my fam loves it. I usually add some dried fruit and flax seeds to it in the morning (along with butter and whole milk, just so no one thinks we are health nuts LOL). I will have to try it with the oats next time.

I think the costs of getting pregnant might outweigh the frugality of oatmeal, though. :)Jen in SLOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13068137659815561606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-35531508721143452222010-11-11T17:12:37.032-08:002010-11-11T17:12:37.032-08:00Julia, I usually make two batches at a time and ge...Julia, I usually make two batches at a time and get about 2.5 quarts out of it. One batch will give you approximately four one-cup servings plus a little. Though, my twins have been know to eat a quart between them in one sitting. =-)Sumikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592651891242831465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-81926921791970865012010-11-11T14:09:45.197-08:002010-11-11T14:09:45.197-08:00This sounds wonderful - how many servings does thi...This sounds wonderful - how many servings does this recipe yield?Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02072077257384390820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-32329190726642791952010-11-10T11:12:15.397-08:002010-11-10T11:12:15.397-08:00I always wondered what the oats:water proportion w...I always wondered what the oats:water proportion would be when using the slow cooker. We always make ours in the rice cooker (1C steel-cut oats to 1 C water). Actually, we usually mix in flax seed meal, oat bran, wheat germ, raisins, & cinnamon while we're at it. Our favorite breakfast in a pinch :)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00000898094786940463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-27482386449849135892010-11-10T08:30:25.343-08:002010-11-10T08:30:25.343-08:00thanks for the recipe! i've been thinking of ...thanks for the recipe! i've been thinking of finding a hot cereal slow cooker recipe for a easy quick breakfast. though we're more fond of very soft oatmeal, i may still give it a try.Georgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06677523292823820568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141925195674785329.post-74736753371623390352010-11-10T07:41:45.736-08:002010-11-10T07:41:45.736-08:00Such a good idea!
