Ingredients

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or water*)
  • 2 cups steel cut oats (do not use any other kind of oats)
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey (optional; add more to taste)
  • Toppings of choice (fresh fruit, chopped toasted nuts, chia seeds or flaxseeds, additional maple syrup or honey, splash of milk)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a 6-quart Instant Pot, stir together the water, almond milk, oats, salt, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Cover and seal. Cook on HIGH pressure (manual) for 4 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes. Carefully remove lid.

  2. 2

    Give the oats a big stir. Carefully taste (they will be hot!) and add additional cinnamon and/or maple syrup to taste. The oats will continue to thicken as they cool. Ladle into serving bowls and serve hot with any desired toppings.
