Make ultra-creamy and simple Instant Pot Oatmeal for One<\/strong> for a fast breakfast with any of your favorite toppings, no stirring or microwaving necessary. (And it\u2019s easy to double if you\u2019re cooking for two!)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2764\ufe0f Why You’ll Love This Recipe: <\/strong>This oatmeal recipe is super simple, and the best part is that you can eat it right out of the bowl you cook it in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re Instant Pot experts and love a simple breakfast on busy mornings, so you can bet that we\u2019ve tested this single-serving oatmeal countless times so it comes out perfectly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I like to start it in the morning, go shower, then eat my oatmeal while my hair dries. By using the pressure cooker, this oatmeal will still be hot whenever you\u2019re ready to eat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can\u2019t beat this simple oatmeal recipe! <\/strong>It\u2019s one of the best Instant Pot breakfast recipes for busy mornings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Really, this is almost a single-ingredient recipe. Here\u2019s what you need to make oatmeal for one in an Instant Pot:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2705 This easy recipe will work in any brand of electric pressure cooker<\/strong>, including the Instant Pot<\/a>, Ninja Foodi<\/a>, or Power Pressure Cooker XL<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It couldn\u2019t be easier to make this oatmeal recipe. Start with a heatproof serving bowl. Simply stir together the oats, water, and salt<\/strong>. Then place a trivet in the bottom of the pressure cooking pot. Pour a cup of water into the pot, then carefully place the bowl of oats on your trivet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cook on high pressure for 2 minutes, wait 5 minutes, then finish with a quick pressure release. Remove the lid when the valve drops, use a hot pad or mini mitt to get the bowl out of the cooking pot, add your toppings, and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most important thing when making oatmeal for one is to use a large enough bowl. The oats may rise up and expand as they cook, so leave plenty of headroom at the top of the bowl to prevent any overflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And don\u2019t forget to add water to your Instant Pot. This creates hot steam under pressure to cook your oats. Otherwise, you\u2019ll get a burn notice on the pressure cooker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can use the trivet that came with your Instant Pot, and a heat-proof serving bowl to make this oatmeal.\u00a0We have an old ramekin set we’ve been using since our wedding, but this ramekin set <\/a>is similar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes. To make more than one serving, repeat the recipe in a second bowl. Then stack the bowls using a second trivet. There\u2019s no need to change the cook time.<\/p> <\/div> While they may foam a little in the bowl you cook them in, they shouldn’t foam enough to come out of the pressure release valve. (Another benefit of pot-in-pot cooking.) <\/p> <\/div> Unlike making oatmeal in the microwave or on the stovetop, this is a very forgiving recipe with no chance of a mess on your counter. So you can set it up, then walk away. And if you take a little longer than expected, since it’s such a small portion, the pressure will release fairly quickly so the cooking will stop on its own. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n My favorite oatmeal topping is frozen berries! <\/strong>When you stir frozen berries into your oats, they flavor your breakfast *and* cool it off so you can eat sooner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We also love serving oatmeal with a fresh homemade fruit compote.<\/strong> Try it with Instant Pot Fresh Berry Compote<\/a> <\/strong>or Lemon Curd<\/a>. We also love to top it with fresh-cut strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream<\/strong>. (I nearly always make homemade whipped cream for desserts, but I keep a can in the fridge for quick breakfasts.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n But there are so many other ways to add flavor and texture to your oatmeal! Try a drizzle of maple syrup <\/strong>or a sprinkle of brown sugar<\/strong> for sweetness. My kids feel extra fancy when I add chocolate chips<\/strong> to their oatmeal. (I prefer the mini kind so they don’t eat as many chocolate chips per bite.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n For crunch, top your oatmeal with chopped nuts<\/strong>, seeds<\/strong>, or granola<\/strong><\/a>. You also can\u2019t go wrong with a spoonful of nut butter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try these other healthy and easy breakfast recipes next:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do you LOVE this recipe? <\/strong><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
