Notes

Paleo. If you want a paleo version, swap the milk and butter for coconut milk and coconut oil.
Oats. Note we used Bobs Red Mill Gluten Free Oats as they stop the porridge oats from sticking as much and are not as heavy. Plus, they are perfect for a healthy gluten free breakfast. You can check them out here.
Reheat. If you would like to reheat your porridge, then you can do so with 30 minutes on high. Or turn off your slow cooker and leave the lid on and it will stay warm for 2 hours.
