Ingredients:

2 cups uncooked steal cut oats

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tbsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. ginger

1/2 tsp. cloves

1/2 tsp. allspice

8 cups water

1/4 cup molasses (can sub with maple syrup)

Optional toppings: nuts, seeds, dried cranberries, Greek yogurt.

Instructions:

  1. Spray the inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.

Enjoy!
