The absolute EASIEST Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats! Perfect steel cut oats every time, with only 5 minutes of effort required.
For the longest time, I wasn’t an ‘oatmeal person’. I thought oatmeal was mushy and just had the MOST unappetizing texture.
Then I found steel cut oatmeal and became slightly obsessed, because the texture is so different from ‘normal’ oatmeal. More chewy and it holds up perfectly for meal prep.
Not only that, but because steel cut oats are the least refined of all the types of oatmeal, they retain more nutrients and are so even better for you than ‘traditional oatmeal’.
The downside to steel cut oats has always been the cook time, and the fact that you have to babysit them while cooking on the stove (or they may burn). Enter the Instant Pot: set it and forget it! So so easy, no risk of the oats burning, and the perfect chewy texture every time.
