Slow Cooker Oatmeal

Oats are packed with fiber, which means there will be a steady release of carbohydrates into your bloodstream throughout your workout.

Here's a great recipe for overnight oats with tons of fiber and protein.

Slow Cooker Apple Pie Steel-Cut Oatmeal

• 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 2 tablespoon Maple Syrup

Optional Toppings

• Peanut Butter

Directions

Add all ingredients to your slow cooker. Stir. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.

Give it a good stir. Top with your favorite toppings. I like peanut butter and fresh chopped apples.

Store leftovers in fridge for up to 1 week. To reheat add a splash of almond milk and heat up in microwave.
