Instructions

Add all the ingredients to the instant pot liner and give it a stir to mix. Put the lid on, make sure the vent is set to closed.

Cook on High Pressure or Manual for 2 minutes, followed by a 5 minute natural pressure release. Quick release the vent after the 5 minutes and remove the lid when it’s safe. Stir the oatmeal to fully combine the oats and remaining liquid until it looks good.

Serve with some almond milk, maple syrup, crushed walnuts and a sprinkle of brown sugar on top. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Use a 1:1 Liquid Ratio 💧
Combine equal parts water and almond milk for the perfect creamy texture without excessive thickness; adjust slightly based on your oat brand's absorption rate.
Toast Oats First for Depth 🔆
Sauté the rolled oats in the Instant Pot for 1-2 minutes before adding liquid to develop a deeper, nuttier flavor that elevates the maple profile.
Add Maple Syrup After Cooking ⏱️
Stir in real maple syrup after the pressure cooking cycle completes to preserve its delicate flavor notes and prevent caramelization during the intense heat.
Master the Natural Release Method 🌬️
Allow 10 minutes of natural pressure release before quick-releasing to prevent splattering and ensure the oatmeal sets to the ideal creamy consistency.
Prep Toppings in Advance 🥣
Pre-portion toppings like nuts, dried fruit, and cinnamon in small containers for effortless meal prep grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week.
