Crock-Pot Apple-Cinnamon Oatmeal

Prep time: 5 minutes

What you need:

• 1 cup steel-cut oats
• 1 cup skim milk (or milk substitute, such as almond or soy milk)
• 3 cups water
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts

What to do:

1. Place oats, milk, water, applesauce, and cinnamon into a slow cooker. Stir, cover, and set to low.
