  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to cook wheat porridge with milk in a slow cooker? Measure out the right amount of wheat groats, pour it into a bowl and pour water for 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Rinse the cereal under running water until it is completely transparent in several waters. It is very important to prepare the cereal correctly, correctly and thoroughly, because even a small amount of mulch can spoil the taste of the finished dish and make it unpleasant to taste and sticky. Also, during the washing of cereals, try to wash off all the fine litter that will rise to the surface. When you are sure that the cereal has become completely clean, drain all the water.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Pour the washed cereal into the bowl of the slow cooker, evenly distributing it along the bottom. In this recipe, I used a 700W slow cooker. Pour salt and sugar on top. With the specified amount of sugar in the amount of one tablespoon, a moderately sweet porridge will come out, if you like it sweeter, then add sugar to your taste.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Pour milk on top of the cereal. It is better to take pasteurized milk with a fat content of 2.5%. In some cases, if the milk is homemade and very fatty, it can be diluted with water. As a result, we should have a ratio of cereals to milk of 1:5. For example, one multi-cup of wheat groats and 5 multi-cups of milk. Or as indicated in the recipe: 0.5 large cup of cereals and 2.5 exactly the same cup of milk. Porridge of medium density will come out.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Turn on the slow cooker to the "Milk porridge" mode for 50 minutes. I have 25 minutes by default, so I have doubled the time exactly. If you do not have such a mode, then activate the "Porridge" or "Buckwheat" mode for the same time. Close the lid and wait for the signal to end the process. When the slow cooker turns off, open the lid and add a piece of butter to the finished porridge - you can add it directly to the serving plates when serving.

Milk porridge is a wonderful and nutritious breakfast, afternoon snack or dinner. I recommend cooking to everyone!

Keep in mind that the cooking time and mode are indicated approximately in the recipe. All slow cookers work differently and even the same models of the same manufacturer may have their own characteristics. Before you start cooking a new dish for you in a slow cooker, carefully study the instructions for it, and then in practice try to cook dishes that are familiar to you first, and then new ones, choosing the mode and time individually for your own technique.
