Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cups water (plus 1 cup for the inner pot)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a heat-safe bowl that will fit in the Instant Pot inner pot, combine the oats, 2 cups of water, the milk, and salt.
  2. Add 1 cup of water to the Instant Pot inner pot.
  3. Place the bowl on the trivet and then lower it into the Instant Pot.
  4. Secure the lid and ensure the steam release valve is set to sealing (this is automatic on some models).
  5. Choose manual/pressure cook (depending on your Instant Pot model), high pressure, and set the timer for 8 minutes.
  6. When the time is up, allow a natural release for 5 minutes and then quickly release the remaining pressure. Remove the lid and stir the oatmeal.
  7. Serve the oatmeal with berries, cinnamon-sugar, maple flakes or syrup, or sliced bananas.
