Best 7 Five Grain Hot Cereal Recipes

5 GRAIN CROCK-POT HOT CEREAL

Steps:

• Mix first 7 ingredients together and store in an air-tight container for future use.
• When ready to cook, mix one cup of grain mixture with 3 cups of water.
• Cook on low overnight in a crock pot OR bake, covered, overnight in a 200 degree oven.

MULTI-GRAIN HOT CEREAL

Steps:

• The grains need to equal 1 cup, so I used heaping tablespoons. The flaxseeds are in addition to the 1 cup. You can use any dried fruit and nuts you like and any combination of grains as long as the grain to water ratio is 1:3. Next time I make it, I think I'm going to try adding brown rice and quinoa into the mix. I'm also thinking of grinding the grains in the blender to make more of a creamy cereal, but I honestly don't know it that will work or not.
• Boil water. Stir in grains and flaxseeds. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in fruit and nuts. Cover and continue to cook for 15 minutes. Serve with a little soy milk and your good to go! Store leftovers in the fridge.
• Enjoy!

• In Dutch oven on medium heat, lightly toast the hardy grains (such as brown rice, whole barley, buckwheat groats) for approximately 8-10 minutes or until fragrant.
• Keep stirring grains constantly so they don't burn.
• Add remaining grains and toast another 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Cool mixture slightly.
• Process grain mixture in batches in food processor, grain mill or blender fitted with steel blade. Grind grains to medium coarse consistency (grainy but not powdered.) Transfer ground grains to airtight container and store in refrigerator or freezer.
• To prepare hot cereal*: To 1 cup of rapidly boiling water add 1/3 cup scant of cereal. Continue boiling 30 seconds, breaking up lumps with a fork. Reduce heat, cover pan and simmer cereal for 10-12 minutes.

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.
