How to make Slow Cooker Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
Coat the insert of a 4-quart crock pot slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. The 4-quart slow cooker I use is programmable and automatically switches to the warm setting when the cook cycle finishes.
Pour the steel-cut oats into the slow cooker and stir in the milk, pumpkin pie filling, vanilla extract, maple syrup, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix thoroughly.
Cover with the slow cooker lid and cook on the low setting overnight, up to 8 hours, or high setting for 4 hours.
Before serving stir the oatmeal. Add additional milk, if needed.
Top with the chopped pecans, additional cinnamon, and milk if desired.

Can you substitute brown sugar for the maple syrup?

Hi Amanda, you should be able to use brown sugar instead of maple syrup. I would try 1/3 cup brown sugar instead of the 1/4 cup syrup. Let me know how it works out for you.
