Ingredients

80 grams Jumbo oats See notes
950 ml Milk See notes
1/2 tsp Salt Optional

Metric - Imperial

Instructions

Mix all ingredients in the slow cooker. Put the lid on.
Set your timer to start cooking 3 hours before your breakfast time.
Mix well, serve and add your choice of toppings.

Notes

Salt: This is optional but it really really does finish off the porridge well and adds flavour

Oats: I strongly recommend using jumbo oats as these will keep more of their texture when cooked for a long period

Milk: I’ve tried this with cows milk, oat and almond milk and also just water. All of them work well

Time your slow cooking: I’d really recommend buying a timer for your slow cooker. I love this one: Tp Link Tapo Smart Plug. You can program it from an app on your phone

Don’t overcook: This recipe really only needs 3 hours, so if you leave it for much longer it won’t have the best results

Toppings: Choose your favourite topping or mix and match!

➡️ Fruit
Strawberries, blueberries, bananas, raspberries, cherries, peaches, blackberries, pears, apples

➡️ Dried snacks
Dates, raisins, coconut, chia seeds, nuts

➡️ Flavouring
Cocoa powder, nutmeg, ginger, honey, cinnamon, nut butters, vanilla, maple syrup
