  2-5 hrs

ingredients

4 cups water
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 egg yolks
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 cups whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
fresh berries (optional)

directions

Coat slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Cover and set on HIGH to heat.

Meanwhile, bring water to a boil. Immediately pour into preheated slow cooker. Stir in oatmeal and salt. Cover.

Combine egg yolks and granulated sugar in small bowl. Mix well; set aside.

Heat cream and vanilla in medium saucepan over medium heat until mixture begins to simmer (small bubbles begin to form at edge of pan). Do not boil.

Remove from heat. Whisk 1/2 cup hot cream into yolks, stirring rapidly so yolks don't cook. Whisk warmed egg mixture into cream, stirring rapidly to blend well. Spoon mixture over oatmeal. Do not stir.

Turn slow cooker to LOW. Line lid with 2 paper towels. Cover tightly; cook on LOW 3 to 3 1/2 hours or until custard has set.

Uncover; sprinkle brown sugar over surface of custard. Line lid with 2 dry paper towels. Cover tightly; continue cooking on LOW 10 to 15 minutes or until brown sugar has melted.

Serve with fresh berries, if desired. Place bowl on damp towel to prevent slipping.
