Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday and abundance of pumpkin, here is the first of several pumpkin themed recipes/posts. :) This was a very simple recipe to throw together in the crockpot before heading to bed. However, after trying several times to enjoy oatmeal made overnight in the crockpot, I think I've decided it is not a recipe for me. This was way too mushy for my liking. I did however, enjoy the flavor/taste of it, so I think I might add some pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and walnuts to my oatmeal next time...just not make it in the crockpot!
2 cups water
2 1/2 cups milk (I used unsweetened chocolate almond milk)
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1 cup steel cut oats (I used 2 cups)
I also added about 1 tbsp organic maple syrup and 3 oz raisins

Place all the ingredients in
the crock pot and stir to combine. Cover
and cook on low for 5-9 hours (I cooked mine for about 4 hours on high, then it
switched to a warm setting for about 3 hours).
