Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • cooking spray non-stick
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • cup water
  • 2 cups Greek Yogurt or Coconut Yogurt
  • tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp real maple syrup plus additional for serving
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and cut into chunks
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries rinsed and patted dry

Instructions

  • Spray the Instant Pot cooking container with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Add steel cut oats and water and stir to combine. Cover with lid and lock into position, then flip the pressure valve to the “Sealing” position.
  • Press the “Manual” button and select the high heat setting. Set cook time to 10 minutes. After a brief pause, the Instant Pot will automatically start building pressure.
  • While the oats cook, combine yogurt, chia seeds, and maple syrup in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
  • When cook time is complete, turn off the Instant Pot to prevent scorching. Allow pressure to release naturally for 15 minutes, and then do a quick release for any remaining pressure.
  • Carefully remove lid and stir the contents to combine. Transfer the cooked oats to individual serving bowls. Heap the oats a little higher on one side of the bowl and spoon the yogurt mixture onto the other half.
  • Arrange the strawberries and blueberries between the two halves for a nice presentation. Serve immediately with additional maple syrup on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
