Crockpot Baked Peanut Butter Oatmeal
Sometimes I get in the kitchen and decide I am going to bake something only to get distracted while it is in the oven. It never ends well. Usually, something ends up burnt or over baked. On those busy days when my brain is in too many places, I like to bake with my crockpot. This yummy Crockpot Baked Peanut Butter Oatmeal is a great place to start if you are unsure about baking in your crockpot.
I mixed up the batter for this delicious Baked Peanut Butter Oatmeal which I originally posted on my other site AFewShortcuts.com. If you want the oven directions for this…that is where to find them. This oatmeal recipe is so easy to make!
I then put the batter in a parchment paper lined crockpot. I used my 4-quart crockpot for this recipe. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours. You want the center to be firm and the sides to start to pull away from the edge a little bit.
Turn off your crockpot and carefully remove the Baked Peanut Butter Oatmeal with the parchment paper. One of the many reasons I love using parchment paper in the crockpot. Easy removal and easy cleanup.
Crockpot Baked Peanut Butter Oatmeal makes a perfect breakfast, or even a great grab and go snack when cut into bars. It never lasts long at my house. If you want you can add mix ins; chocolate chips, raisins, nuts, whatever you would like to add a little extra flavor.
