Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup dry steel cut oats
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1 3/4 cups water
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg

Notes

  • This recipe can be made with dairy or nondairy milk. For a vegan version, use your favorite nondairy milk.
  • For creamier oats, use all milk and no water.
  • Make sure the 'keep warm' function is turned off so the pressure will come down more quickly at the end.
  • Taste the oatmeal after cooking and add more spices or maple syrup if needed.
  • You can also make this maple pumpkin spice oatmeal with rolled oats instead of steel-cut oats. Just reduce the water to 1 cup and reduce the cooking time to 3 minutes.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Leftovers may also be frozen.
  • Slow Cooker Instructions: Follow instructions as written, but cook 7-8 hours on low in the slow cooker.
