Apple Cinnamon Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats
Here’s an easy recipe for Apple Cinnamon Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats made dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan. Make this creamy and naturally sweet healthy breakfast in 30 minutes.
Steel cut oats are one of those foods I never cooked before I got an Instant Pot, because they take forever to cook. I mean, who has that kind of time the morning?
Thankfully, the pressure cooker cooks them just perfectly in 6 minutes cooking time (31 minutes total time). I recommend the 6-quart Duo Instant Pot as it is the perfect size, without too many features or unnecessary buttons.
Steel cut oats are a nutritious ingredient that are very versatile. Some people even make a savory version of oatmeal to serve as a side dish at lunch or dinnertime.
If you’re gluten-free, be sure to buy certified gluten-free steel cut oats. You might also like my gluten-free Instant Pot Amaranth Breakfast Porridge recipe.
Recipe Steps
Step One
Combine the oats, dairy-free milk (I like unsweetened almond milk), ground cinnamon, raisins, chopped apple, and date syrup or maple syrup in your Instant Pot. You don’t need to stir the mixture.
Step Two
Lock on the lid and set the time to 6 minutes at high pressure. Let the pressure come down naturally for 10 minutes and then remove the lid.
Step Three
Stir the cooked Instant Pot steel cut oatmeal and serve it hot. Refrigerate or freeze any leftovers and re-heat before serving.
