So easy with those kids.
Used 5 formula scoops of powdered milk (mixes at the same ratio to formula) and hot water from my dispenser/kettle, it was super smooth and creamy in 10min
Lucy says
Fantastic!
Flynn says
Hi Lauren it’s me Flynn Jen’s son we tried this and it was amazing
Lauren Matheson says
That is awesome Flynn, glad you guys enjoyed it 🙂
Clara says
It took longer to cook as there was far too much liquid. Not sure what I did wrong?
Tash says
Is there any chance you used quick cooking oats instead of traditional rolled oats?
It does thicken on standing as well.
Mary says
I’d love to try porridge in the Thermomix but it makes too much. Only my toddler eats porridge. I also only make it with water not milk but would try with almond or coconut milk. Do you know if the recipe could be halved and if the cook time would need to be different?
Lucy says
It can definitely be halved! I keep the cooking time the same!
Lisa says
I love how you can slide the toggle on the servings and it automatically adjusts the amounts I need! Lifesaver in the early mornings 💖
Lucy says
We're so glad you like it!
Dani says
Thank you for this recipe. It worked perfectly and was so yummy!
Lucy says
Yay! That's great to hear!
Teresa says
I made this and used coconut milk instead of dairy and water....it was delicious...thankyou....???
Corena Powers says
Can I substitute the milk for more water? I dont like much dairy.
Lucy Mathieson says
Hi Corena, I personally wouldn't as it really loses it's flavour and texture! Try using almond or soy milk instead if you prefer!
