In reply to Bonnie. Hi Bonnie, as we mentioned, it's not faster but it's hands off which is convenient for many people.

Thank you for this recipe, but I am a bit disappointed that with a 20 minutes natural release, this manner of cooking is not any faster than stove top. I prefer savory foods to sweet, so I like to eat my oats with sauteed onion and pepper and an egg.

By mixing this up at night and using the timer function on the IP, it’s possible to wake up to a steaming bowl of oatmeal on a cold morning.
And yes, it reheats beautifully through the week.

In reply to jane. Hi Jane, is your instant pot larger than 6-quarts? You might have to add more volume.

In reply to sera. Hi Sera, I haven't tried, I usually just top the plain oats after. But let me know how that works for you!

If, you get the dreaded “burn message” when making this recipe, than use the pot-in-pot method.
Put 1 cup of water in your IP. Put your ingredients into another pan that will fit in your IP (I use a steamed pudding mold). Put this pan into the IP, and cook as described in the recipe.
I hope this helps.
