Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons butter, I used coconut oil
  • 2 cups steel cut oats
  • 6 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream, I used almond milk
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, I used coconut sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For serving

  • milk, berries, nuts, dried fruit, jam, etc

Instructions
 

  • Use the saute function on the instant pot to melt the butter (or coconut oil) and toast the oats for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Stir in the water and cream (or almond milk), sugar, and salt. Lock the lid in place and select high pressure and 10 minutes cook time.  (*note the pressure cooker will take time to get to high pressure before the cook time begins)
  • When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker.  Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and finish with a quick pressure release. Stir in the chia seeds and vanilla. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes or until the oats reach your desired thickness. 
  • Serve with milk, berries, nuts, jam, or dried fruit.
