Time 6h5m

Yield 12 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

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

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.

CROCK POT HOT MULTIGRAIN CEREAL

One of my favorite ways to begin the day, and you can use your slow cooker to ensure that all family members get off to a nutritious start. Cook the cereal overnight and leave the slow cooker on Warm in the morning. Everyone can help themselves according to their schedules. Try using Irish oatmeal or steel cut oats, instead of traditional rolled oats for a crunchier version. Multigrain cereals are one way of ensuring that you maximize the nutritional benefits of cereal grains. You can buy them pre packaged, usually in 3, 5 or 7 grain combinations or under a brand name, or you can make your own by combining your favorite grains. Store multigrain cereal in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
