Slow Cooker Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal is so easy to throw in the crockpot at night. Then when you wake up in the morning you'll have a warm and healthy breakfast already. Fruit included!

Never underestimate the power of a great bowl of oatmeal. It sounds so simple but delivers so much comfort ... and satisfaction! I think I could have oatmeal every single morning and never get tired of it.

I will admit that sometimes, first thing in the morning I just can't seem to get my eyes open enough to boil a pan of water.

It seems I can always stumble into the kitchen but then things might get limited after that.

Something I can do though ... I can open the lid of a slow cooker and scoop some fruity creamy hot oatmeal into a bowl.

All that's left is to pull out a spoon and relax over a delicious bowl of morning breakfast.

This next picture is of another slow cooker oatmeal and this time it's Irish. I just wanted to give you a peek before we move on to fruity oatmeal.

Wake up to Slow Cooker Irish Oatmeal. Throw it all in the crockpot in less than 5 minutes and when you get up the morning drizzle on a little maple syrup.

I'm sure you've had lots of bowls of oatmeal before. Have you ever had oatmeal with apples? It's a match made in heaven. Apple pie comes to mind.

Maple syrup comes to mind with oatmeal too. I've added it in these photos because it's just pretty but you really don't need the extra sweetener at all. Not that maple syrup is a bad thing.

I buy jugs of the stuff.

Hints for Making Slow Cooker Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

You can peel the apples but you don't have too.

Cut the apples into larger slices. I like to cut them in half and then each half into thirds or fourths. So, each apple will give your six to eight slices depending on the size of the apple.

You can use apple cider or apple juice. Tree Top has an apple juice that has apple as the only ingredient. There are organic ciders around too.

If you like you can use half water and half apple juice.

You can sure double the ingredients but use a larger crockpot.

Slow Cooker Apple Oatmeal is piled into a turquoise bowl and tilted to keep the maple syrup in.

You know something else you could do? Add a few chopped dates. Right at the beginning with everything else. Wouldn't that be good! Like I said, I could eat oatmeal every day.

This may sound crazy but I have 4 different slow cookers. A 3 qt. one, a large one that has a removable insert for washing (love that one), an even bigger oval one and one was a gift. It's that short flat kind with two pots for a party.

Oh, yeah, I have a really small one too that's just for keeping dips warm. Something like this Slow Cooker Creamy Chili Dip. You don't have to keep it warm but it's really good that way too. Take a look!

Slow Cooker Creamy Chili Dip is cooked in a crockpot and is done in a few short hours. Spicy good with fresh veggies and chips makes this a 5 star recipe.
