1 c. oatmeal
1/3 c. raisins (opt.)
2 1/4 c. water

(Other options, apples, cinnamon, nuts.) Spray crock pot with non- stick spray. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. When the raisins cook with the oatmeal it sweetens it. So adjust the amount of sugar or sweetener.

Great for families on the run in the mornings. Last 1 out, remember to turn off the crock pot. 4 servings.
