I've also been very into my crock-pot lately.. things have gotten busy. This leads me to--
Pin 44-
Kelly & I eat breakfast at different times, and we both like a hot breakfast on a cold day. I found this pin; of apple dump oatmeal and thought it would be perfect. I went and bought apples, and prepped everything. It was easy to follow with minimal ingredients. I opened the pin completely, and there were no additional instructions. I was worried about using 4 cups of water, but on first time recipes I always follow instructions exactly. With some hesitation, I went to bed to let this cook overnight.
Excited to try the oatmeal the next morning, I woke up and was surprised that the kitchen didn't smell like cinnamon and apples. I opened the lid and the oatmeal looked watery and the sides of the crock-pot were burnt. I scooped it in a bowl took a bite and really disliked it. It was bland, watery, mushy and even with stirring and re-cooking for awhile there was no saving the oatmeal. The photo below is what I made and looks identical to the pin photo.. but wasn't tasty at all.
Keep your fingers crossed for a successful pin next week!
