🧂 Ingredients

2 cups steel cut oats

certified gluten-free, if necessary
4 to 5 cups water

Instructions

1 Combine the steel cut oats and water in the bowl of your Instant Pot and give
them a stir. Use 4 cups of water for thicker oats, or 5 cups of water for more
of a porridge-like texture. Cover with the lid and make sure you turn the vent
at the top to "sealing."
2 Press the manual button and then lower the time to 4 minutes on high pressure.
The cooker will automatically start.
3 After the Instant Pot beeps, allow the pressure to naturally release for 20
minutes. (The timer on the Instant Pot will remain on after the cooking cycle to
let you know how long it's been kept warm, unless you press the off button. I
like to keep it on for the timer function.)
4 Once the 20 minutes have passed, turn the vent to the "venting" position to
release any remaining pressure. Carefully remove the lid and stir the oats to
incorporate any water that has risen to the top. They should be nice and thick,
with a porridge-like texture.
5 Serve warm with maple syrup, cinnamon, and a splash of non-dairy milk, if
desired. Leftover oats can be stored in individual containers in the fridge for
up to a week, for a fast breakfast on the go.
