Cook oats in Instant Pot
Start by adding water, almond milk, steel-cut oats, maple syrup, flax seed meal, chopped apple, cinnamon, and almonds into your Instant Pot or any similar pressure cooker. Secure the lid and set it to cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. It might take about 10 minutes for the pot to come up to pressure before the cooking time starts. Once the timer goes off, let the pressure release naturally—this usually takes around 10 to 15 minutes. After the pressure has fully released, carefully open the lid and give the oats a good stir. Serve right away and enjoy your warm, comforting breakfast!

Serving Suggestions
Top with chopped nuts, a drizzle of maple syrup, or fresh berries to add texture and natural sweetness. A spoonful of nut butter or a sprinkle of toasted coconut also pairs well and boosts flavor.
Storage Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently with a little plant-based milk or water to loosen the oats and restore creaminess. You can also freeze portions for up to 1 month.
