Overnight oats, except warm. It’s genius. And so delicious. I love waking up to a hot breakfast in the winter… or anytime really!
I’m a mama of two under two and some days we NEED these easy, warm, breakfasts. I know some families can do the whole cereal for breakfast thing – more power to you! We, however, need protein and a more substantial breakfast for better moods and to stay full longer.
This recipe combines a classic favorite with a modern solution: the crock-pot.
We love these crock-pot oats two ways, but they are endlessly customizable.
The night before you want a warm lovely breakfast waiting for you when you wake up, take out your crock-pot and stir together all the ingredients, turn it to keep warm overnight, and you will have breakfast hot and ready the next morning.
To serve, you can add a scoop of Greek yogurt for extra protein, or just serve as is! This also keeps well in the refrigerator to reheat.
