Instant Pot® Zucchini Steel Cut Oatmeal

01Method

1. 1

   Set the pressure cooker to Saute mode and heat the coconut oil. Add the oats and cook, stirring, until lightly golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Switch off the Saute function, then pour in the water, almond milk, and zucchini, and season with cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Give everything a gentle stir.

2. 2

   Secure and lock the lid. Set the cooker to high pressure following the manufacturer's guide and program a 4-minute cook time. Allow approximately 10 minutes for the pressure to fully build.

3. 3

   Let the pressure drop naturally for about 10 minutes using the natural-release method, then carefully vent any remaining steam with a quick release, about 5 minutes more. Open the lid and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract.

4. 4

   Spoon the oatmeal into four individual bowls and scatter a tablespoon of walnuts over each portion before serving.
