I always try a recipe exactly as it is written the first time. Funny how some people change the recipes and then are not happy with the recipe. My crockpot does not have a 6 hour low setting on it. Mine says 6 hours high, so I put it on low for 8 hours. It looked a bit watery when I opened the lid, but it thickened up nicely when stirred for a little bit and then put into the bowls. I think that perhaps some of the comments in here about it being too watery (especially the one with 3 cups of water left over) have to accommodate for their slowcooker as I did or perhaps mis-measured ingredients (as we all have done). Perhaps each crockpot heats differently as do ovens and microwaves. The flavour was awesome! I really dislike hot cereals of all kinds and many times I've tried to eat porridge as an example for my children. I have heard that it is very healthy and since I love allrecipes.com, I thought I would search for a recipe that I would be able to enjoy eating. My family all love this. We put vanilla yogurt on top and it was just like eating dessert! Thank you so much for this recipe, I can actually eat porridge with my family, and I don't have to cook every morning as there is enough to last a few mornings.
