Pina Colada Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats

Ingredients and substitutions

  • Coconut oil – coconut oil will add the coconut flavour needed for the pina colada taste. You can leave this out and just use the coconut milk if you don't have any on hand.
  • Coconut milk – I use Silk coconut milk but you can use any sweetened or unsweetened coconut milk of your choice – as long as it comes from a carton.
  • Water 
  • Steel cut oats – steel cut oats are healthy and the least processed oats but you can use rolled oats, or old fashioned oats, instead.
  • Pineapple – you can use frozen or fresh pineapple.
  • Shredded coconut – choose between sweetened or unsweetened shredded coconut to add into this recipe.
  • Raspberries or cherries (optional toppings)

Storing and reheating

Making overnight oats is the easiest breakfast meal prep recipe because they're made to be stored for a whole five days after preparation. So, if you are “too busy” for breakfast or skip breakfast this is the best solution for you.

Once you've prepared the oatmeal, let it cool down completely then transfer in to airtight glass containers or mason jars. Store in the container of your choice in individual servings to make the mornings that much easier.

When you're ready to enjoy your oats, take your serving for the day and enjoy cold or warm up in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. If you prefer warm oatmeal and are planning on warming up your servings in the morning, then make sure to add extra liquid to make sure they don't dry out too much in the microwave.

Freezing this recipe

This recipe is freezer friendly! If you plan on meal prepping farther in advance than the five days, you can store your individual servings in the freezer. All you have to do is put your mason jar or glass container in the freezer and move it to the fridge to thaw the night before you're ready to enjoy it. Your overnight oats will last in the freezer for up to three months.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 2 cups coconut milk (from a carton; I used Silk)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup steel cut oats
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen pineapple, diced
  • 3/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Pour coconut oil, coconut milk, water and steel cut oats to Instant Pot in that order. Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes and let the pressure release naturally (about 20-25 minutes - you'll know when the pressure valve is down and lid opens easily.)
  • Remove lid and stir in shredded coconut and pineapple. Divide among 4 meal prep bowls and garnish with raspberries or cherries (optional). Serve and enjoy!

        Unfortunately I can’t provide alternative directions for this recipe since I have not tried it any other way but in the pressure cooker!

    These flavours are some of my favourites, and I’m feeling very inspired. I make oatmeal every morning and toss a big handful of frozen berries into the pot. I’m going to have to try coconut and pineapple now! Thanks for the idea.

    So I’m a novice at making oatmeal for several days. How do you store it and is it reheated the next day? This recipe looks so amazing and I must try it.

      Hey Mary! Right above the recipe I’ve linked to some of my favourite meal prep bowls (they’re round glass ones but you could use any microwave safe container if you’re going to reheat them) and I usually just store them in the fridge. From there you can either eat them cold or reheat in the microwave a minute or two and top with fresh fruit. Hope that helps 🙂
