Now, Porridge has always been a very quick, healthy and economical breakfast. A pack of oats costs no more than a few bucks and it literally lasts forever. And for a light eater like me, a 1/4 cup of oats can keep me going until lunch time.
Myster always buys the coarse oats which don't microwave as well, but yesterday I found a recipe which uses a slow cooker instead.
You just put 1 part of oats to 3 parts of liquid into the slow cooker, plus any fruit or spices you may want and leave it on low heat over night.
The result is steaming hot & silky smooth porridge as soon as you wake up. I used sliced apple and cinnamon for this version, but the possibilities are endless: summer berries, bananas, chocolate power, poached mandarins, you name it...
Happy Sunday everyone!
