Slow Cooker Christmas Porridge
This slow cooker Christmas porridge is an easy breakfast for the kids on Christmas morning, with all the hard work done on Christmas Eve! Why not have a go at making your own festive fruit designs?
This easy Christmas porridge is made in the slow cooker over-night, and is based on my foolproof slow cooker porridge recipe.
It makes the perfect, no hassle breakfast for the kids on Christmas morning.
Decorated with simple fruit snowmen and reindeer designs, you could even cut the fruit up the night before and leave it in the fridge. Then, on Christmas morning, it's a simple assembly job!
Ingredients
1 Cup of Oats (a tea cup will give you 4 servings).
4 Cups Milk (use the same cup as you used for the oats).
Fresh Fruit for decorating - 2 kiwis, 4 strawberries, 4 blueberries, 1 banana and pomegranate seeds.
Salted Pretzels.
Maple Syrup for drizzling.
How to make Christmas Porridge
Step One: Preheat the slow cooker on low setting.
Step Two: Before you go to bed put the oats and milk into the slow cooker basin and give it a stir. Put the lid on and leave overnight (up to 8 hours).
Step Three: Chop the fresh fruit (see photo's for how to decorate),
Step Four: Spoon the porridge into bowls (thin it down with a splash of milk if necessary), decorate as reindeer or snowman and drizzle with maple syrup.
Top Tips
The recipe can be doubled to feed eight instead of four.
Stir in a spoon of clotted cream when serving to make it extra special.
Have a go at making different Christmassy designs on top of the porridge. How about a Santa using banana and strawberries, or holly and ivy! Get creative.
