Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup steel cut oats
- 2 apples peeled and diced, I used Honey Crisp
- 2 tbsp raw honey
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger I used ginger sold in a jar
- 2 cups water
- 2 tsbp chopped pecans for topping
- cooking spray or oil to grease the Instant Pot I used avocado oil, you can also use coconut oil
Instructions
- Grease the sides and bottom of the Instant Pot with oil. You can also use cooking spray. This step is important because you don't want the oats to stick to the pot.
- Add all of the ingredients to the pot (with the exception of the pecans) and stir.
- Close the pot and seal. Place the Instant Pot on Manual High-Pressure Cooking for 10 minutes.
- When the timer beeps DO NOT perform a quick release. Press cancel, to turn the pot off. You do not want the Instant Pot on "Keep Warm." The oats may burn.
- Allow the steam release naturally for 10 minutes before opening the pot.
- Serve the oatmeal in bowls topped with chopped pecans or desired toppings.

Notes
Cooking time noted above includes the time for the Instant Pot to come to pressure and naturally release steam and pressure. Overall timing may vary depending on how long it takes your pot to come to pressure.
If you prefer oats that are chewy and less creamy, decrease the cooking time. You can use 3-5 minutes.
If you like sweet oatmeal try adding a little stevia organic sweetener.
Additional topping ideas: Greek yogurt, chia seeds, granola, and almonds.
