Millet porridge with pumpkin in a slow cooker

I make pumpkin porridge only from millet. I know that there is another option with the addition of rice and it is called, in my opinion, "Friendship". But I don't like this option. In recent years, I only make it in a slow cooker, because it greatly speeds up the process and the result is always guaranteed to be delicious. But there is one important rule - the pumpkin should be initially very good - fragrant and sweet. I like two varieties the most: completely green on the outside and bright orange inside (I don’t know the variety) and Butternut. To measure, I used the small glass that came with the multicooker.
