Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup stone-ground grits (I use Trader Joe's Stone Ground Grits) Do not use Instant Grits
- 2 ½ cups milk or non-dairy milk, divided
- 2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons butter or vegan butter, plus more to serve
- 1 teaspoon sea salt (or more to taste)
- Black pepper to taste
- 2 ounces shredded cheese (such as cheddar, Parmesan, gouda or vegan cheese), optional
Instructions
- Spray or brush oil into slow cooker basin. (Don't skip this step!)Add grits, 2 cups milk, water, butter, and salt.
- Cook on low 6-8 hours.How thick the grits are after cooking will depend on a few things, such as the fat content of your milk and the specific type of grits used.If your grits are not thick after 8 hours, stir and let them cook a few more minutes on high until thickened.
- Add the remaining ¼ cup milk, and stir in the cheese (if using). Add additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.Leftovers: These grits are best served right away, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge and served within 2-3 days. Note that the grits will thicken substantially when chilled. When reheating, stir in extra milk, cream, or yogurt to rehydrate the grits.
