Instant Pot Steel Cut Oatmeal

We've been making a lot of this lately.
desireearmfeldt; asked how I usually went about it. Fairly simple:
If you use the butter, melt it down and maybe toss the oats in for a bit. Then put the whole thing on high pressure for 6min. Wait 10min after it's done and release the pressure and take off the lid. Give it a stir (it may be wet on top) and let it steam for a few minutes to vent some of the cooked corn smell (this seems to be worse for the gluten free oats). Then put it away once it's cooled down and stiffened up a bit.
We re-heat this for breakfast during the week.

- 2c steel cut oats
- 5-6c water (2.5x - 3x)
- Salt, before cooking so it ends up in the oats, not on the oats. Less than 1/2t
- Sugar, 1/2-1T; not too much
- A bit of butter if you're going mad with power
