Best 5 Grain Crock Pot Hot Cereal Recipes

MULTI-GRAIN HOT CEREAL (SLOW-COOKER)

Steps:

• 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.

FIVE GRAIN HOT CEREAL

Steps:

• You need a blender(or food processor, or better yet, a coffee grinder) to make this recipe.
• Get out your coffee grinder.
• Measure the dry oatmeal into it.
• Whirl the oatmeal until it is powdery, like flour.
• Dump the oatmeal into a mixing bowl.
• Measure the barley into the blender.
• Process it until powdery.
• Dump it into the bowl with the oatmeal.
• Measure the brown rice into the blender.
• Process it until powdery.
• The rice will take longer processing than the oatmeal or barley.
• It will be a tiny bit coarser after blending too, that is alright.
• When it is as powdery as you can get it, dump it into the bowl with the other grains.
• Add the whole wheat flour and the cornmeal, along with the sesame seeds, is using.
• Stir the mixture up to combine it thoroughly.
• Transfer the mixture to a resealable container and label.
• Store on the pantry shelf.
• Makes 3 1/4 cups.
• To Cook: 1/3 cup 5 Grain Cereal, 1 cup cold tap water, Dash Salt, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar(or 1 tbls. honey).
• In a small saucepan combine the cereal and cold water.
• You use cold water because it prevents lumps.
• Add the salt and brown sugar.
• Bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Serve with milk.
• Makes 1 serving.
• To make 4 servings, use 1 cup of 5 Grain Cereal, 3 cups of cold tap water, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/3 cup brown sugar.
• This is a very healthy and hearty way to start the morning.
• I like this cereal much better than most other mixed grain cereals I have tried.
• The rice gives the cooked cereal a nice chewy texture which contrasts nicely with the smoothness of the whole wheat flour and cornmeal.
• If you don't have quick barley, you can replace it with more oatmeal, or even wheat germ, or wheat bran.
• I've also thought that Rye Flour might make a nice addition, although I have never tried it.
• This cereal is an excellent source of B vitamins and fiber.
