Scotch Oats in the Slow Cooker

From: Carolyn D'Agostino

Got up this morning to this, which was delicious. Makes being unable to sleep at 3:30 almost worthwhile.

(An addendum -- be sure to liberally butter the inside of your slow cooker before putting this stuff in. Don't ask me how I know this. Carolyn, letting the crock soak until Kingdom Come)

2 cups steel cut oats
4 cups water
1/2 cup milk or cream
3 T butter
2 apples peeled and grated
1 tsp cinnamon
generous glug of maple syrup, the real kind
pinch of salt

Put in slowcooker on Low overnight.
