Pumpkin Pie Steel Cut Oats

(Original Recipe from Food Doodles)

Pumpkin Pie Steel Cut Oats in the Crockpot

**Sheri's version: I cooked mine on the stovetop according to box directions.  For 2 servings: 3 cups water, 1/2 cup steel cut oats, and probably 1/4 tsp salt. (Bring water to boil, add oats, turn to low, cook for about 25 minutes stirring fairly regularly.  Use a bigger pot than you think you'll need because it does boil up quite a bit.)  I didn't use coconut milk because I didn't want to open a can to use part of it.  To the oats, I added:  1/2 cup pumpkin, 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice, 1 tsp vanilla.  Cook to desired texture.  I served warm with brown sugar, maple syrup, pecans, shredded coconut, and milk.  It was very delicious :)  I think Bill was skeptical, and he even liked it.  Could also sweeten with honey or add a dollop of greek yogurt and sprinkle with cinnamon like the original recipe suggests.
