Directions
The night before: Spray your crock with some oil to help with clean-up later. Add everything except baklava filling topping ingredients to the slow cooker. Now mix together the baklava filling in a small bowl and store in the fridge until the morning. Cook on low overnight (7 to 9 hours).

In the morning: Stir your oatmeal well. It may seem watery at the top, but if stirred, it should become a more uniform consistency. Top each serving with a few tablespoons of the baklava filling, making it as sweet as you like it.
