- 1 c. pecans, chopped and divided

Love, Love Crock Pot Oatmeal, and Crock Pot Pecan Pie Oatmeal is no different! You can even imagine what a wonderful aroma you will wake up to!
1. In a small skillet, toast pecans over medium heat.
2. Stirring frequently, watch carefully to avoid burning.
3. Reserve 1/4 c. pecans for serving.
4. Combine 3/4 c. pecans and remaining ingredients in the crock of the crock pot.
5. Cover. Cook on Low for 7-9 hours. (My crock pot is programmable, so I set it for 8 hours, and when it is done it turns to warm.)
NOTE: Serve with the reserved toasted pecans on top.
Happy Crocking!

This sounds absolutely amazing… can you please tell me how many servings are in what you have listed above? I can’t seem to find it unless I’m overlooking it somewhere! I presume this could be doubled depending on how many people the above recipe serves?
Thanks!
Hey Erin… It is amazing! All of the serving sizes to the recipes are in the upper right hand corner of the webpage on each recipe, but I am happy to tell you that this recipe serves 6, but it also depends on how hearty your servings are! Happy Crocking!
have you ever doubled this recipe. Would love to do for family breakfast at church
Hello Mimi! I have doubled this recipe! As a rule of thumb just make sure your crock pot is 1/2 to 3/4 full to crock properly. Enjoy and Happy Crocking!
3 words apply to this recipe…OMG!!! I could not stop ‘picking’ at it after it was cooked. It is so yummy and comforting. I switched up the recipe a bit…coconut oil instead of butter (’cause I didnt have any available), 1/2 cup of egg whites (for an extra hit of protein) and about 1.5 tsp of cinnamon (’cause whats oatmeal without cinnamon). This will certainly be on heavy rotation in our household. Thanks CPG!
Thanks Gracie for posting, guess you will be doubling and tripling this recipe! Happy Crocking!
I want to try this for my family. Wondering if I can substitute the brown sugar for agave or honey.
Rebecca you sure can! Happy Crocking!
So that didn’t work! My pecans got burnt in the crock pot. Not sure what I did wrong. A few got burnt in the skillet but in the crock pot it had an odor of yumminess mixed with a burnt popcorn smell. OY! Going to try again tonight
