The Bon Vivant Gourmet

A fine breakfast for cold, dreary mornings. Makes your house smell wonderfully, too! Pumpkin puree and oats are both very high in fiber.

1 c. Irish steel cut oats
1 c. pumkin puree
2 c. milk
1 c. water
1/3 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
dash of freshly grated nutmeg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
cooking spray

In a large bowl, combine milk, water, pumpkin, spices, vanilla and brown sugar. Mix well.

Add oatmeal, stirring to combine.

Spray a large crockpot liner with cooking spray. Add oatmeal mixture and cover. Cook on low overnight for no more than 8 hours. Enjoy for breakfast with more milk, brown sugar, pecans and/or raisins according to your preferences.
