Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Steel Cut Oats
  • 3 cups Water
  • 1 cup Whole Milk
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • Fresh Berries, for topping
  • Brown Sugar, for topping
  • Chopped Pecans, for topping

Instructions
 

  • Add the steel cut oats, water, milk, maple syrup, butter, cinnamon, and salt to the Instant Pot. Stir everything together to combine.
  • Lock the lid and set the valve to sealing. Pressure cook on high for 4 minutes.
  • When the cook time is complete, allow a natural pressure release for 10 minutes. This step is important because it allows the oats to continue cooking and absorbing liquid, resulting in the perfect creamy texture.
  • Carefully switch the valve to venting to release any remaining pressure. Remove the lid once the pin drops.
  • Stir the oats well. They will thicken up as they sit. If you prefer a thinner consistency, stir in a splash of milk.
  • Divide into bowls and top with fresh berries, a sprinkle of brown sugar, and chopped pecans. Serve warm.
