Steel Cut Oat Porridge cooked in an Instant Pot Pressure Cooker.

 

PLUG-IN your Instant Pot Pressure Cooker with the clean stainless inner bowl in place.

 

RINSE steel-cut oats in a fine colander or sieve with running water.

 

ADD all ingredients to the stainless steel inner bowl.

 

LOCK LID in place and set the Pressure Cook time for 10mins. Check pressure release valve is closed.

 

INSTANT POT will come up to pressure; this will take a few minutes. The lid will lock, cook for 10mins and beep when it is done.

 

QUICK RELEASE  the pressure valve turning manually with care.   Remove the lid once it unlocks, and stir the oats well. 

 

SERVE as is or top with Apple Berry Compote. Drizzle with raw honey or maple if you need the sweetness. Stir in milk if you like. 

 

STORE any extra in the fridge covered. Reheat on the stove in a saucepan or use the Instant Pot saute button; either way, add 1/4 cup water and stir gently until hot.

GLUTEN-FREE Oats are naturally gluten-free. Oats may be processed in a facility that also processes wheat, barley and rye, so if you are allergic or very sensitive to gluten, then buy gluten-free oats.

 

LOW FODMAP limit to 1 cup serving size and see how you feel.

 

DOUBLE UP the recipe, cook extra, and keep it in the fridge covered so you will have a few days of whole-grain breakfasts ready to reheat.

 

FLAVOUR ADDITIONS; You can add vanilla, cake | pumpkin spice blends, cinnamon, dried fruits like raisins or dates, butter, coconut oil or ghee when cooking or when serving.
