Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

4 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1/4 cup brown sugar (or maple syrup for a healthier option)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Sliced apples and additional nuts for garnish

Instructions
 

In a slow cooker, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, diced apples, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

    If you're adding nuts or dried fruits, fold them into the mixture now for extra texture and flavor.

      Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The oatmeal will be thick and creamy when done.

        Once the cooking time is up, give the oatmeal a good stir. If it's too thick, you can add a splash more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.

          Serve warm in bowls, garnished with sliced apples and a sprinkle of additional nuts if desired. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness, if preferred.
