Makes 8 one-cup servings.

Ingredients:

2 cups organic groats

3 cups water

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon ground turmeric

Add-ins: chopped pecans, chopped walnuts, chopped apple, berries, banana, pumpkin puree, microgreens, flax meal, chia seeds, hemp seeds, or steamed and chopped dark leafy greens.

1. Rinse the groats thoroughly under cold water to remove any dust or impurities. This will also help to prevent the groats from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
2. Add the groats, water, cinnamon, ginger, and turmeric to your Instant Pot. Make sure the valve is closed and set it for full pressure for 5 minutes. When the pressure cooking is complete, allow it to remain on warm for 90 minutes.
3. Remove lid and fluff with a fork. Transfer to a baking sheet and allow to cool, then place in a sealed container. The groats can be kept in the fridge to eat all week or in the freezer for three months.
4. To prepare, add one cup groats to a sauce pan or a bowl with about ¼ cup plant-based milk. Warm on stovetop, or microwave for 30 seconds. Top with your desired add-ins.
