"I've read a ton of good and bad reviews that mean absolutely NOTHING because they don't list which slow cooker they are using. I wanted to write my review for my exact slow cooker. I used a 6-quart oval Crock-Pot Smart Pot. I doubled the recipe. I used dried cranberries, chunks of fresh apple, and milk instead of half and half. At 9:30 pm I set it to cook for 3 hours on low, then the Crock-Pot switched to warm for the remainder of the night. At 6:30 am, when we awoke, it was PERFECT. Just as if I had made it on the stove. The apples were tender, not mushy, The oats were still attractive, not brownish from the cranberries. No overcooked edges. No bad clean-up.
