We’ve been pressing the easy button on breakfast this month. We are working with very limited kitchen and need something nourishing, delicious and simple to fill hungry bellies in the morning. These easy instant pot steel cut oats hit the spot! With endless variations, steel cut oats are the perfect blank canvas to build a brilliant breakfast. I’m sharing 3 variations of Easy Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats in my new Holiday Stress Less Guide.
Okay oatmeal is easy enough, I know, but the instant pot makes it easier and the texture more consistent. Win win win
Easy Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats
Serves 6
You’ll need:
- 6 qt instant pot
- 2 cups quick cooking steel cut oats (you can find these at Costco for a steal of a deal!)
- 4 cups milk or water (I prefer using almond milk, but you can use what you have on hand!)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Add all ingredients to instant pot and pressure cook on manual setting for 4 minutes.
All the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.
Give your oats a stir and they are ready!
You can dress up your oats however you like, but I am loving my Loaded Instant Pot Pumpkin Oats.
