Crockpot Oatmeal (as we call it)

This is the simplest recipe. My favorite oatmeal to use. It needs to be regular oatmeal not instant. This brand is from Costco and has a very heart, rough texture and flavor.
Make as package instructs. I usually add just a little more water than it says. This time I added raisins, and should have put a little more water in due to the raisins soaking up so much water. Cook on low for many hours and cook quicker on higher temperature. My goal was to be able to cook all night long so it was ready first thing in the morning. Works very well. Takes about 6 hours. I could probably put it on Warm and it would take 8 hours.
Finished product. My family loves it, especially Lilly who remembered today that she loves raisins. She started out wanting to know what to do if she ate too close to the raisin.
She was pretty sure it was poison.
