🌱 Basic recipe for Steel Cut Oats in the Instant Pot:
▫️ 1:2.5 steel cut oats to water ratio (i.e. 2 cups oats will require 5 cups water)
▫️ Manual (high pressure) for 4 mins
▫️ Let the pressure come down naturally (wait for the pin to drop) or you can release the pressure after 10 mins by turning the nozzle to the "venting" position
▫️ Add any fruit you like at this time (I recommend any combo of strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cherries, blueberries and/or apples)
▫️ I like to add toppings right before eating (i.e. ground flax seed, chia, hemp hearts, toasted nuts or banana, but this is up to you!)
▫️ Enjoy!

Recipe starts at 3:00 mins. Thank you very informational.
You’re welcome! 🤗🤗
Love it! I did 2 cups steel cut oats and 4 cups water. I like how that cake out a little better than when I did the 5 cups water. It was a little runny for me. Thank you for the video! Love your style! Straight to it!
Aww thanks so much, I really appreciate that! 🤗 And I love that you adjusted it to your taste!! That’s what I want to show these recipes are all about. 😄😄😄 Definitely works best when customized to our own tastes/ preferences. Glad you shared this comment so others can try it as well! 😊🌱
I occasionally cook steel-cut oats the old fashioned way in a pan of water for 30+ minutes so I don't cook them very often. So this has a lot of promise. I never thought of cooking steel cut oats in the instant pot.
I think you’ll really like it! Let me know what you think when you try it. 😁 I need to do an update on this video because I’ve also recently started cooking them in the instant pot (on slow cook) overnight and I want to show how easy that is too! It’s so great to be able to put everything in the instant pot at night, and wake up to ready to eat oatmeal. 😊
@@LetsEatPlants I did cook a pot of steel cut oats in my instant pot for 6 minutes and it came out just the way I like it.
I just made this! I am excited for my children to try it for breakfast tomorrow! Thank you!!
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed! 🤗🤗 Hope your kids like it too!!
I don't know how your vids don't have more views! Love the edit and quality. Keep it up and you'll grow in no time! Great work, I will be following :)
Aw thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed. 😄😄
Thank you for the nutritional and cost break downs!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you found it useful. 😄 I haven’t been including it in my more recent videos because I wasn’t sure if anyone found the info useful! 😌😌
Nice video - I love my instant pot. I just press my porridge button and that works good for me. Have seen others let it natural release for more tender steel cut oats. If all you use your instant pot for is oatmeal, it is definitely worth it. So nice to start my steel cut oatmeal cooking in the instant pot, then go get ready and take my shower and have it all sitting there perfect for me when I am ready to eat.
Thank you! Yes, I agree the instant pot is wonderful!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Such a game changer! 💕 What time is your porridge button set at? Did you know it’s adjustable (the timing for each setting)? Just wondering what your perfect cook time is. 😁😁 Anyway, totally agree it’s such a time saver since all the cook time is hands off! Love it!! Thank you for sharing. 😊😊
Let's Eat Plants it goes for 20 min then I quick release. It is usually perfect. But I have done the 10 min then let it natural release (25 min or so) and they are slightly more tender. But I guess what is neat is that they all work great and the fact you can walk away and go take your shower while it cooks is fantastic.
azdh85224 very much agree! Well said. 😊😊🙌🏼🙌🏼
This looks super good! I typically make oatmeal in the microwave because it is what I was taught, but I think that this may need to be something that I try.
Rabbit Food Fitness I always used to use instant oats myself! But after reading up on including more whole grains vs. processed grains I decided to give steel cut a try! They are chewier, but still good. Def give them a try. 🤗🤗
@@LetsEatPlants I will!
Thank you. Informative. I made it yesterday and it came out delicious 😋
I like your idea of batch cooking it. 🙂
You’re welcome! Glad it came out well! Yes, we usually batch cook this recipe at the beginning of every week. Easy to mix it up with different fruits and add-ins as you like! 🤗 Enjoy!
I love the final texture of the oatmeal from this recipe, thank you! It's fluffy and chewy. Instead of 5 cups of water, I used 4.5 cups of water + .5 cup of milk. (I heard putting in too much milk in instant pot might cause "burn" error). I have one question - did you ever store this oatmeal mixed with apples & berries, just like the recipe, in the refrigerator? How long can we keep them there and eat?
You’re welcome and I’m so glad you’re enjoying! Yes! I do add the berries and/or apples and keep it in the fridge all week. I find it lasts 5-6 days just fine, even with the added fruit. 😊😊
I can’t wait I love that it’s prepping for the week that’s my language
Yesss! I love to batch/prep as well! The new baked oatmeal I just did (search persimmon oatmeal on my channel) is great for meal prepping as well! I just baked a double yesterday (you can sub the persimmon for any fruit you like) and it will last us a few days in the fridge. Just reheat when needed! (Works as a healthy dessert as well. 😉😉)
Thank you
You’re welcome! 🤗
Can't wait to try it...Thank you!!
You're very welcome! Hope you enjoy it! 🤗🤗
Buy from bulk bin. Even more affordable and much fresher!! You can taste the difference. 3 to 1 oats to water. Cook between 5 - 10.
Yes, great point! I love my local bulk store! Thanks for the suggestion. 😊😊
So affordable and healthy - love it!
Benjamin Biesek Yes they are! Such a great breakfast staple. 😄 Thanks so much for your support!
Glad I found your channel
😊😊😊💕🌱
You didn’t show how you make your breakfast in the mornings. Do you microwave it? Do you have to add extra liquid due to any drying while in the fridge?
Yes! I usually microwave it! You could also heat it on the stovetop if that's your only option (or just eat it cold! 😮), but microwave is definitely the easiest! 😁 You can also add some plant milk once you heat it to make it a bit creamier. I usually don't, as I feel it's still pretty wet even after a few days in the fridge. Up to your personal preference though! 😀
10 min Low pressure and Normal heat has worked, no need to babysit the timer.
Great Video! Where does Old Fashion Oats fall into all of this? Are they processed a lot ?
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗 I believe “old fashioned oats” are the same as rolled oats. But I have also seen steel cut oats called “old fashioned” before (but they should at least be labeled with the words “steel cut” on there somewhere if they are!). 😅😅
You can also always check the oat itself. If it is a large rolled flake, that is “rolled” which is more processed than steel cut, but still a better option than quick cooking oats. If they are hard & chunky they are probably steel cut. Hope this helps!
I guess I had too much water in my 6 qt. I came all out the release valve when I did quick release. However I did place a towel over it, could that cause it?
Good question! Usually I wait at least around 10 minutes to let some of the pressure release naturally, and then release any remaining pressure left. I’ve done quick releases before and have had the same problem as you! (Good thinking with the towel.) I think waiting at least 5 mins will help, but 10-15 would be better! Hope that helps. 😊
Hello from France. I just got an Instant pot so trying to learn how to use it. Am a little confused, do you not have a Porridge/oatmeal setting??
Hello there! 😃 I do have the porridge setting, but I find that the settings are just pre-set times. Kind of like “bookmarks” or “saved settings” for those dishes.
So if you make this porridge a lot, you can set *your* porridge setting to the cook time you use for these oats. (I.e. press porridge button and it should already be on high pressure, set the timer to 4 mins and then let it start. Next time you can just press porridge and the time will already be saved for your preferences.)

@@LetsEatPlants Excellent. Thank you so much. Have a good weekend.
@@louisaleroux5610 You're welcome! Thanks, you too. 😊
Do I need to make any adjustments if I'm using a 8 quart pot?
Nope! Ratios of grain to water & cook time will all be the same. 😊😊
Steel cut oats are not the least processed. Unharvested oats would be the least processed. But, those would be a challenge to prepare and consume. The least processed oats I've eaten are oat groats.
Yes!! I didn't know oat groats were a thing until after I had made this video but you are 100% correct! Thanks to Dr. Greger's BROL (barley, rye, oat groats & lentils) I've put them on my list to try. 😁😁 I assume they're similar to spelt berries, which I love! Thanks for the informative comment! 🙏🏻
3:26 for the recipe!
Hmmm🤔 everyone says to pressure cook for a different time for same amount, 2c oats, 5c water... one guy said 10min....
Yes people like different textures that’s why. 😊 It’s not really about how “cooked” it is (since technically you can eat oats “raw” like in overnight oats) but more so about the consistency.
It can also depend on the brand of oats. I now use the “quick cooking” steel cut oats which cook in only 1 minute in the Instant Pot.
Great video, but in the nutritional info part you left out the single most important nutrient....fiber!
Very true!!! 😅😅 Thanks for pointing that out! 😁
I made this and it was a disaster. When I released the pressure as you suggested at the end of the one minute cook time I had oatmeal spurting out the vent and all over the kitchen. I think it would have been much better to wait for a natural release.
Oh no!!! I am so sorry to hear that!! I can see now that I wasn’t very clear in my video.. but I do usually wait a bit of time after it finishes cooking before doing a release of pressure (usually about 5-10 mins of natural release and then releasing any remaining pressure). That was the time in the video that I was cutting the up the apple, but I should have been more clear. I’m so sorry that happened to you! It’s happened to me too actually. I just quickly closed the valve again and waited longer for the pressure to come down further. Anyway, hope it all turned out ok for you in the end. 😔😔
