Slow Cooker Banana Walnut Bread Oatmeal

2 to 3 servings

**This recipe uses a smaller slow cooker that’s 1 1/2 to 2 quarts

• 1/2 cup steel-cut oats
• 2 cups Unsweetened So Delicious Coconut Milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 banana, mashed
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 – 2 tablespoons sweetener
  (I used agave)
• For serving: chopped walnuts

The night before: Spray your crock with some oil to help with clean up later. Add oats, milk, and vanilla. Cook on low over night (7 to 9 hours).

In the morning: Stir your oatmeal well. It may seem watery at the top but if stirred it should become a more uniform consistency.  Stir in cinnamon, sweetener, walnuts, and mashed banana.

Top each serving with walnuts and more sliced bananas if desired.
