I have been playing around with our morning oatmeal routine to try and spice things up. The thought occurred to me that I should be making this in larger batches at the beginning of the week instead of every morning. I love the smell of cinnamon and apples especially first thing in the morning. I have played around with a few ingredients to make the oatmeal clean.....hope you enjoy!

Clean Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal
Ingredients
- 2 apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (2-1/2 to 3 cups chopped)
- 1-1/2 cups fat-free milk or Silk
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 1 cup uncooked steel-cut oats
- 1 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon molasses
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, raisins, unsweetened cranberries or fruits
Directions
Spray the inside of 3-1/2 quart (or larger if you are doubling recipe) slow cooker with cooking spray. Add all ingredients minus any additional toppings to slow cooker. Stir, cover, and cook on low for 7 hours. Spoon oatmeal into bowls; add optional toppings, if desired. Store leftovers in refrigerator. Freezes well.
