Overnight Slow Cooker Oat Porridge
When mornings feel rushed, this overnight slow cooker oat porridge is exactly what you need. Using whole oat groats creates a deeply satisfying texture that holds its shape while releasing a rich, creamy starchiness. The slow cooker does all the heavy lifting while you sleep. You'll simply combine the ingredients before bed and wake up to a warm, ready-to-eat breakfast. It's a comforting, hands-off way to feed the family without any early morning prep.
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat groats
- 4 cups water
- Pinch of Celtic salt
Instructions
- 1Place the oat groats, water, and a pinch of Celtic salt into the slow cooker insert. Stir briefly to ensure the salt dissolves evenly.
- 2Cover and cook on the low setting for 8 to 10 hours, until the oats are tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Notes
- Toppings: Serve warm with a drizzle of honey, molasses, or your favorite fresh fruit.
- Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of milk or water.
- Prep: Rinsing the oat groats before cooking can help remove excess starch if you prefer a less sticky texture.
