Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup steel-cut oats
3 cups water
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
1. Select the Sauté setting on the Instant Pot and melt the butter until it begins to foam.
2. Add the steel-cut oats to the melted butter and stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes until oats are toasted and butter is golden brown.
3. Pour in the water and add the salt, scraping the bottom of the pot to ensure nothing is stuck.
4. Secure the lid and set the steam valve to Sealing. Cancel Sauté and select the Porridge setting for 12 minutes.
5. Allow a natural pressure release for 10 minutes, then vent any remaining steam. Stir well and serve hot.
Notes
Do not skip the 10-minute natural release as it helps the oats reach the perfect consistency.
For extra creaminess, stir in a splash of warm milk after cooking.
Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 5 days and reheated with a little extra liquid.
