Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oatmeal by Dizzy Busy and Hungry
This Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oatmeal is made with steel cut oats and pumpkin puree. It takes about 10 minutes in the evening to put all the ingredients together, and then the crock pot does the rest!
Just set the timer on your slow cooker if it has one, or use a separate timer to plug in the power cord, so that you end up cooking the oatmeal for 4-5 hours.

Steel cut oats are the best! Since they take longer to cook, making them in a crockpot is a great idea!

I recently made regular pumpkin oatmeal, but overnight oats are one of my favorite things to wake up to!

I would so love to wake up to this smell. I need to invest in a timer so I can make overnight oatmeal, since my crockpot doesn’t have one. Thanks for participating in #PumpkinWeek!
