To serve

Method

  1. 1

    Grease the inner pot generously with butter, especially at the bottom and around the sides: otherwise porridge quickly sticks.

  2. 2

    Put the oats, milk, water, apple, raisins (optional), cinnamon and salt in the slow cooker and stir well.

  3. 3

    Put the lid on and cook for 6–7 hours on LOW, for example overnight, or 2–2½ hours on HIGH.

  4. 4

    Stir the porridge well and sweeten to taste with honey or sugar (optional). Too thick? Stir in a splash of warm milk.
