Slow-Cooker Oatmeal With Apples and Ginger

This slow-cooker apple and ginger porridge is a wholesome, vegan breakfast designed to take the rush out of busy mornings. By combining steel-cut oats with short-grain brown rice and warm spices, you create a deeply satisfying texture that is far superior to standard instant oats. The fresh ginger adds a gentle heat that cuts through the sweetness of the apple, making it a comforting choice for chilly autumn or winter starts.

Ideal for meal prep, this hearty dish can be made in a large batch and kept in the fridge for the week ahead. It is naturally high in fibre and packed with slow-release energy to keep you full until lunch. Serve your bowl with a splash of plant-based milk or a spoonful of almond butter for a delicious, nutrient-dense start to your day.
