Oatmeal Cream Pie

Oatmeal Cream Pie

  • 4 cups half-and-half or light cream
  • 4 cups oat milk* or almond milk
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 cup butter, cut up
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 4 egg yolks, beaten
  • 1-1/2 cups sweetened whipped cream
  • 4 3 – inches oatmeal, sugar or shortbread cookies, crumbled
  • Irish cream liqueur (optional)

Directions:

  1. In a 3 1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker whisk together half-and-half, oat milk, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Whisk until sugar is dissolved. Add butter. Using a small sharp knife, split vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the cooker; add the pod too.
  2. Cover; cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, whisking once or twice if possible.
  3. Remove vanilla bean pods; discard. Gradually whisk about 2 cups of the hot drink into egg yolks in a medium bowl. Whisk egg yolk mixture into the drink in the cooker.
  4. Serve topped with whipped cream and crumbled cookies.

Variation:

  •  If desired, add 1 to 2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur (Bailey’s) to each mug before adding the hot drink.
  • Slow cooker twist on classic eggnog can be kept on the “warm” setting for one hour.

Tip

  •  *Look for this dairy-free milk alternative at natural foods stores or substitute unsweetened almond milk.
