Slow Cooker Recipes
Multi-Grain Hot Cereal (Slow-Cooker)
Description
"Made with steel cut oats, quinoa, wheat berries, and brown rice. Adapted from a recipe from the Complete Whole Grains Cookbook by Judith Finlayson. I love it because it is super healthy, super easy, and reheats perfectly."
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown rice, rinsed & drained
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed & drained
- 1 cup wheat berries
- 1 cup steel cut oats
- 11 cups water
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 -2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 apples, peeled, cored & diced
Directions
- dump everything into a lightly greased, large crockpot.
- Cook on low overnight (about 6 hours was enough for me); or on high for 4 hours.
- The original recipe suggests adding additional dried fruits, like raisins or cranberries in the last hour before serving. I topped mine with some maple syrup.
- *I used a brown, long-grain basmati rice, but I'm sure any length rice would work fine. Also, I didn't have any apples, but I had some dehydrated apple-chips which I crushed and tossed in -- they worked great.
