      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

      It took longer to cook as there was far too much liquid. Not sure what I did wrong?

        Is there any chance you used quick cooking oats instead of traditional rolled oats?

        It does thicken on standing as well.

      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?

        It can definitely be halved! I keep the cooking time the same!

          I love how you can slide the toggle on the servings and it automatically adjusts the amounts I need! Lifesaver in the early mornings 💖

        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!
