Instructions
Sauté the oats. Heat up your instant pot under the sauté function. Add butter and when melted, add the oats. Stir for a couple of minutes to get it nice and toasty.
Mash the banana. Use a fork to mash the over-ripe banana.
Add ingredients. Add the water, milk, mashed banana, and salt – and stir well.
Seal the instant pot to pressure cook. Turn the setting to high pressure and cook for four minutes, making sure the vent is closed. The instant pot will take about 8-10 minutes to heat up. It will beep when it’s ready. Then it will start the pressure cooking.
Do natural release. After the four minutes of pressure cooking, let the instant pot do a natural pressure release for about ten minutes. If needed, release the remaining pressure.
Add brown sugar and peanut butter. Then add the brown sugar and peanut butter to the instant pot and stir until well combined.
Serve – Serve this delicious breakfast with a splash of milk and some banana slices.
Notes
I don’t soak my steel-cut oats before cooking with them. However, soaking them speeds up the stovetop cooking time if you are using that method.
