Overnight oats are the best for stress-free mornings. Using a slow cooker changes the game a bit so you have a steaming hot breakfast first thing in the morning.

    Also important to know the size of your crockpot. Most people probably have a 4 quart or larger.

  2. HeatherS. REVIEW:

    I also had a problem cooking this all night in the crockpot. I think it was too hot. Wish I had a temp. set crock. Even though is was a little burned around the edges this still turned out really tasty. I used Almond Milk and brown sugar (instead of regular milk and honey). SO Yummy I will make again, just cook it less time!

  3. 3xOV3RBOSS REVIEW:

    Defiitely can't cook this overnight. only 4 hours on low and its donen.

  4. vamoose REVIEW:

    I cooked it on "warm" in my crock pot and it turned out good. MUst be a recipe written a long time ago because newer crocks are too hot to cook on low overnight for something like this.

  5. monki419 REVIEW:

    I made this, and like another reviewer, mine also burned. The middle of it was still good, and that part tasted great. I think next time I am going to double the recipe because it didn't make much anyway and I will cook it for less time.

  6. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    I made this recipe (but doubled it) it turned out wonderful!!! A hit with even my 5 year old! I just wish i had the nutritional value...

    I made the recipe, no changes, and it burned. Either my slow cooker was too big for the small amount, or the cook time is too long.

    • Some newer model crock pots overcook most recipes (one particular popular brand purchased within the last 5 years or so is notorious for this)

  8. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This works in one of my crock pots but not the other. You need one that cooks at lower heat than some of the new ones do. Or, cook it on warm if your crock has it (my hot one doesn't)
