Directions
Crock Pot Hot Whole Grain Cereal,I have really been getting into hot cereals lately. This is a good one, cause you just put the cereal in the crock pot, and let it do the work! All these grains go into the crock pot uncooked. The proportions are critical in this recipe. Use any combination of whole grains you would like, as long as the total equals one cup, for every three cups of water used.,Sadly this recipe doesn’t like me. I made it twice and it didn’t turn out either time. It’s too bad, because I was excited to find an easy healthy recipe that used a lot of grains I had in my pantry. The first time used medium bulghur, long grain brown rice, whole barley, millet, white cornmeal, steel-cut oats, dried tropical fruit mix, golden raisins and goji berries. The rice and whole barley weren’t cooked at 8 hours…The rice cooked after about 10 hours but the barley never did…I’ve never used whole barley, maybe it was supposed to be pearl barley? I also didn’t like the weird flavor the dried fruits infused the whole thing with. Anyways, the next day I made it by just adding the grains to a 1 cup measuring cup and used: medium bulghur, short-grain brown rice, millet, steel-cut oats, raisins and dried cranberries. This time it took about 10 hours again for the rice to cook but I still didn’t like the whole mushy texture and flavor from the dried fruits. Most of your recipes are excellent so I’m sure I’ll find others to use my grains in. Because this seemed to have worked out for other people I’m not going to leave a starred review.
