I only have a regular sized crock pot. Can I double the recipe?

I don’t know if they have them in Canada, but there is a great product called Crock Pot Liners. Looks like a big baggie that fits in the crockpot. They are wonderful for messy dishes like this. Worth their weight in gold at clean-up time!

I don’t cook with milk at all so I can’t tell you what the results would be. You can use water and not use any milk.

I use a 1 1/2 or 2 quart slow cooker for my oatmeals. You might be able to do it in a 1 quart, but I would not use a little dipper because it will be too small.

Do you use a mini crock for this or a reg 3 qt? Seems like it would fit in a mini/dip crock.

I have dozens of oatmeal recipes on the blog: Try starting here: https://healthyslowcooking.com/?s=oatmeal+2+quart

I have a way to fix ths problem. Put water half way up an oven proof dish and place the dish in the slowcooker uncovered but cover the slowcooker. Pam the dish before putting the oatmeal. Works everytime!

You can use canned pumpkin puree. There’s also a recipe on the blog to cook your own pumpkin puree and if you make that you can use it in this recipe too.
