So Easy to Put Together
It really doesn’t get much easier than throwing all the ingredients in a slow cooker and letting that little guy do the work for you. Slow Cooker Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal is no different.
The only part that takes the slightest amount of time is peeling and cutting up the apple. If you don’t mind a little apple skin, you could cut down that time even by not peeling it!
