Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 8 large eggs
  • 4 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 2⅔ cups baby spinach
  • 4 ounces shredded cheese ((113 grams))
  • 1 medium avocado, sliced

Instruction

  • Put the oats and 3 cups water in the Instant Pot. Close the lid and also make sure the steam vent is closed.
  • For thin savory oatmeal: pressure cook for 6 minutes on high (“multigrain” setting) and let the pressure naturally release for 15 minutes.For thick savory oatmeal: Pressure cook steel cut oats for 10 minutes on high (“multigrain” setting). Then let the pressure naturally release for 15 minutes before carefully opening the pressure valve.If this oatmeal contains too much liquid, cook for several minutes on high saute (lid off) to evaporate it. To thin oatmeal that is too thick, simply stir in a little milk or water.
  • While the oatmeal cooks, you can cook your eggs and bacon in a skillet in on the stovetop. Set them aside, and then wilt the fresh spinach in the hot bacon fat. 
  • After the oatmeal is cooked, you can add the toppings. The shredded cheese will melt a bit on the warm oatmeal. Also add your fried eggs, cooked and crumbled bacon, sliced avocado, and wilted spinach. Yum! 
  • Stovetop directions: Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Stir in 1 cup of steel cut oats and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 25-30 minutes until the oats are done and liquid is absorbed. For the best results, check your steel cut oats package for cooking times. Some brands recommend cooking on the stove for 45 minutes. You should stir the oats occasionally while they cook on the stove so they don’t stick to the pot.
