Preparation

Coat the slow cooker with butter.

Add all ingredients and mix well.

Cook on "low" for 6 to 8 hours.

When ready to eat, add Greek yogurt and stir well, as the oats tend to settle.

Serve with pecans, seasonal fruits, a bit of maple syrup... and enjoy.

Tips

If your slow cooker is programmable, cook for 7 hours then keep on "warm" until you're ready for breakfast.
