Celebrate the success of your week by indulging yourself in a French toast casserole!

This sinful breakfast is the perfect start to the perfect weekend. So what if it’s 100,000 calories? You know you deserve a little pampering.

Unlike the usual French toast, this easy casserole version is ten times easier to make. Plus, it can feed a crowd!

There’s no need to go to Starbucks to enjoy a hot cup of mocha, either. With a few ingredients and the slow cooker, you’re good to go.

9. Slow Cooker Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

Here’s another delicious take on classic oatmeal. If you can’t get enough of fall flavors, this recipe is a must-try.

Steel-cut oats + pureed pumpkin + pumpkin spice + cinnamon + vanilla = pure joy.

Apple crisp is a delicious and cozy autumn dessert. Fall spices are present both in the apple filling and the crumble topping.

One spoonful of this treat is like a warm embrace from your mom.

Besides apples, you can also make the classic crisp with peaches. It’s crisp and crumbly on top, soft and tender in the center, and delicious all throughout.

The flavor and texture combination sure hits the spot!

I know it’s not ideal to eat ice cream for breakfast, but with this dish, you should make an exception.

There’s nothing like a sweet and tender slice of banana bread to start your day. And yes, you can make one in the slow cooker, too!

There’s nothing this handy equipment can’t do.

This banana bread is just as wonderfully sweet, moist, and packed with flavor as one that’s baked in the oven.

Chocolate Chip Muffins

These tiny bites are huge in flavor! Chewy, chocolatey, and addictive: these are the perfect words to describe these mini-chocolate chip muffins.

Trust that it will yield the same level of goodness as any French toast you’ve had.

20. Crockpot Rice Pudding 

This rich and creamy rice-based dish is a popular breakfast in Nordic countries, and in my household as well.

It sounds bland, but you can easily give it more flavor by adding dried fruits, cinnamon, honey, or jam.

Just the thought of a cup of hot chocolate gives me so much joy. Others call it hot cocoa, but to me, it will always be happiness in a cup.

It’s perfect for cold winter mornings, but it’s so good I wouldn’t mind drinking it even on a hot day!

This Crockpot recipe makes the richest, most decadent hot chocolate! No hot chocolate packet can match its deliciousness.

Flavored with various herbs and seasonings, you’ve never had omelette this good before.
