Instructions

For the Ziplock Bags

  1. To a ziplock bag add steel cut oats, brown sugar, salt, and other dry ingredients like spices and freeze dried or dried fruit.
  2. Squeeze all the air out of the bag and seal shut.  Store in pantry for up to 3 months.

When time to cook the oats

  1. Pour contents of ziplock into the pressure cooker pot.  Add 3 1/2 cups of water (or 4 cups if you want to add chia seeds after cooking) and stir to combine ingredients.  Secure the lid and turn pressure release knob to a sealed position.  Cook at high pressure for 10 minutes.  When cooking is complete, use a 10 minute natural release.  If adding chia seeds, stir them in now and put the lid back on for 5-10 minutes for them to swell and thicken the oats.  Stir and serve hot topped with extra fruit if desired.
