Ingredients
  • 1 cup steel-cut oats
  • 4 cup milk or water
  • 3 tablespoon agave, honey or brown sugar
  • chopped or grated apple with a sprinkle of cinnamon
  • chopped pecans with a drizzle of maple syrup
  • fresh blueberries with almond chips, sweetened with honey
  • dried cranberries with chopped shelled pistachio
  • freshly crushed green cardamom seeds with chopped pistachio, drizzled with a touch of honey
  • a few strands of saffron, topped with almonds and agave nectar
  • brown sugar, raisins and chopped walnuts

Directions
  1. Cooking Steel Cut Oats Pot-in-Pot:
  2. Add 1 cup water in the inner pot for 6 qt, 2 cups for 8 qt.
  3. Place the trivet.
  4. Assemble oats and milk (or water) in an oven safe bowl that fits easily in the Instant Pot, and place on top of the trivet.
  5. Close lid.
  6. If using a DUO, turn the vent to sealing position.
  7. Set Porridge mode and adjust the time to 15 mins.
