I was hesitating on this recipe given the much longer cook time than most steel cut oats IP recipes, but I know you are so precise with your recipes I convinced myself to give it a try. I used Cherry’s excellent suggestion of making it in a 7 cup round Pyrex bowl, adding some water to the insert under it. I used 1 cup almond milk and the rest water with the oats as directed. Thanks so much for the wonderful review, Joan!

The oats were creamy, not too dry or too liquid. So glad to hear it, Pam! I’m not a cook and I make my oatmeal on the stove. But, I’m temporarily on oxygen and can’t use our gas stove. After reading comments and suggestions, I made the recipe using only water as I add yogurt to my oatmeal, cooking for 20 minutes using the 7-cup Pyrex dish on a trivet in the insert with 1 cup of water in insert.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Susan! We’re so glad you enjoyed it! 2 cup of mixed Quinoa with oat milk, which I’d never used before. I also added vanilla extract and some cinnamon.

Oat milk and flavoring didn’t add much to my taste other than increased the cost. But it could be that I doubled your recipe in my 3 qt Instant Pot. Instant Pot did a fine job, but next time I’ll use just water vs. I always have used water only for years and years before. I’ll skip those too and stick to my mix of fruits, ground flax, some nuts and or seeds.

I looked at, that calls for such a long pressure cooking time of 20 minutes. 3-5 minutes but the same 20 minute natural pressure release as yours. 2 cup quinoa felt to me and my experience in years of wood stove cooking, like this quantity of steel oats just might need more than 3-5 minutes and I think it did. Thanks so much for sharing your experience!
