I've recently gotten into making overnight oats in the slow cooker. I put all the ingredients in before I go to bed at night and by the time my earliest riser wakes up in the morning, hot breakfast is ready and I can still snooze away in bed while they help themselves to a delicious, hot & healthy breakfast.
I've tried a few recipes so far, but this, by far, is my favorite one I've found.
Slow Cooker Cherry Almond Oatmeal

I omit the butter/fat in this recipe and use applesauce (instead of shredded apple) for simplicity It's basically impossible to limit myself to one serving with this one... it's soooo tasty! Reminds me of a cherry pastry. I even cut back on the brown sugar to 1 Tbsp and it still tasted great. The dried cherries already provide a lot of sweetness. I think next time I'll try omitting the sugar and see how it turns out.
