How to make buckwheat porridge with milk in a slow cooker? Cooking such porridge is not difficult - a minimum of effort, a minimum of time. It turns out to be delicious and satisfying, languishing, like from an oven. Usually everyone likes porridge lovers - both children and adults.

So, prepare the necessary ingredients. Wash off the right amount of buckwheat, sort it out, getting rid of the litter, and then rinse thoroughly under running water. Transfer the washed buckwheat into the bowl of the slow cooker.

Select the "Multi-cooker" or "Frying" mode (the name of the mode depends on the type of a particular multi-cooker). If the temperature can be specified in this model, we set 160 degrees Celsius. Fry the grits, without ceasing to stir, for 3-4 minutes.

Next, measure the specified volume of milk and water, pour both into the bowl of the slow cooker. Mix everything together. Add granulated sugar and salt. Sugar can be added more or less - in this matter, focus on your own preferences. If the porridge is prepared for children, you can exclude sugar from the composition altogether or add a minimum. Also, if desired, you can put a little ground cinnamon in the porridge. Or experiment and add your favorite dried fruits, for example, porridge will be good with raisins or dried apricots.

Now set the "Porridge" or "Grits" mode, in some slow cookers it is called "Rice" or "Buckwheat". Set the time - 25 minutes. And ... we go to do household chores, get ready for work or just relax, because now the slow cooker will cope with cooking itself.

When the specified time has passed and the signal sounds, the porridge will be ready. Spread the hot porridge on serving plates, add butter. If desired, you can pour a small amount of milk over the porridge or sprinkle with nuts, dried fruits. Porridge decorated in this way will be the key to a good mood for the whole day!

Bon appetit!
