- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Add all the ingredients to the Instant Pot, stirring the mixture together to combine oats, water, salt, cinnamon, brown sugar, and maple syrup evenly.
- Set Instant Pot: Place the lid securely on your Instant Pot and set it to the Porridge setting for 6 minutes, ensuring even cooking for creamy oatmeal.
- Natural Release: When the cooking cycle finishes, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure to avoid splattering and maintain the oatmeal’s texture.

- If using steel cut oats, increase cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes for proper doneness.
- You can adjust the sweetness level by altering the amount of brown sugar and maple syrup.
- Top with nuts and fresh fruit for added flavor and nutrition.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a little extra water before cooking.
