I really want to know the answer to this question, too, since oatmeal is my favorite breakfast. Though I couldn’t find an exact recipe, this author (Jasmine, bottom of page) seems to do fine with rolled oatmeal (I think steel-cut would work, too), water, and very minimal extras: Use Your slow-cooker Buy the family-size rolled oats (not quick oats) and use your slow-cooker! We do this and it tastes great! Measure into your slow-cooker the normal ratio of one cup oats to two cups water. We add cinnamon (about a teaspoon to every triple batch) and sometimes some dehydrated apple or sliced fresh apple. Turn the slow-cooker on low for about eight hours (overnight) and wake up knowing breakfast is already taken care of in a very yummy way. We have also added brown sugar when in the mood. Why not substitute with maple syrup? This is by far our best breakfast when considering savings, convenience and nutritional content.
