Slow Cooker Porridge Ingredients:
- 245 g 3 Cups Porridge Oats/Rolled Oats
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 480 ml 2 Cups Skimmed Milk
- 1200 ml 5 Cups Water
- 1 Tsp butter
Instructions
- Add coconut oil to the slow cooker and use your hands to spread it around the sides and bottom. This creates a non-stick layer for the oats.
- Next load everything into the slow cooker and give it a good stir.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook for 2 hours on high or 6 hours on low. Or 3 hours on high or 8 hours on low for the instant pot slow cooker.
- Stir and then serve with your favourite sliced fruit.

Notes
- Paleo. If you want a paleo version, swap the milk and butter for coconut milk and coconut oil.
- Oats. Note we used Bobs Red Mill Gluten Free Oats as they stop the porridge oats from sticking as much and are not as heavy. Plus, they are perfect for a healthy gluten free breakfast. You can check them out here.
- Reheat. If you would like to reheat your porridge, then you can do so with 30 minutes on high. Or turn off your slow cooker and leave the lid on and it will stay warm for 2 hours.
