Instructions
Prepare and Pressure Cook
Start by pouring some water into your Instant Pot and placing the trivet inside. In a small bowl, stir together the milk, oats, freeze-dried strawberries, cream, cinnamon sugar, and a pinch of salt. Set this bowl carefully on the trivet. Close the lid and lock it in place. Choose the Porridge setting and set the timer for 5 minutes. It will take about 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build up. When the cooking time is up, use the quick-release method to let the pressure out—just follow your Instant Pot’s instructions for this part. Once it’s safe to open, take off the lid and top your oatmeal with some fresh strawberries before serving.
