Here is a fail-proof recipe to make Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats and 4 ways to top your oats! Add any milk you want to make it high fat, low fat, vegan, vegetarian, whichever way you like. I couldn’t be happier with the result of multiple recipe tests. I LOVE LOVE LOVE steel-cut oats, just as much as I love Instant Pot brown rice. Both taste so much better than their more processed cousins. They are also healthier than their cousins. Ever since I own a Pressure Cooker I can’t get enough of brown rice and steel cut oats. YUM!!!

Ingredients

Salt
1/3 cup Maple syrup
1 cup Milk of choice
3 cups Water
1 1/2 cups Steel cut oats
1 tbsp. Coconut oil

Method

01

Preheat instant pot by pressing the "saute" button. Once hot, add coconut oil and once melted steel cut oats to toast them for a little (about 2 minutes) while constantly stirring.
02

Add a pinch of salt and water, give it a quick stir and cover with lid and seal. Press, "cancel" then "manual" and adjust the time to 3 minutes and pressure to "high pressure".
03

Go take a shower or do whatever else you have to do for the next 20-ish minutes. The pot will take about 3-5 minutes to get to pressure, 3 minutes for cooking and 16-18 minutes for natural pressure release.
04

Once the pin dropped (if it doesn't drop after 20 minutes manually release left overpressure, there should be close to nothing in it anymore).
05

Open the lid, add maple syrup and your milk of choice a little at a time while stirring until you reach desired consistency and wetness of your oats.
06

Some like it drier others swimming in milk. Top with your favorite topping combo and dig in!
