Coat the 4-quart insert of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, applesauce, brown sugar, cake spice, salt and eggs until thoroughly mixed. Add the mashed banana until incorporated. Stir in the milk.
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the oats and baking powder.
Stir the dry oat mixture into the wet mixture until combined.
Add the peanut butter and continue stirring until combined.
Stir in the raisins.
Pour mixture into prepared slow cooker.
Use 3 or 4 sheets of paper towel between slow cooker insert and lid to absorb extra condensation and prevent it from falling back onto the oatmeal.

Serve warm or let it stand in the slow cooker for up to an hour before cutting into pieces for serving.
Recipe Notes
I used Penzeys Cake Spice in place of the ground cinnamon you’ll likely find in other similar recipes. This cake spice is a nice blend of cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, allspice, ginger and cloves.Click here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.10*SmartPoints (Green plan)10*SmartPoints (Blue plan)7*SmartPoints (Purple plan)7*PointsPlus (Old plan)
