For perfectly creamy steel cut oats in the Instant Pot is to actually use a mixture of water and non-dairy milk.

 The ratio you'll want for oats to water is 1:2. 

So for every 1 cup of oats, you use 2 cups of water.

Once you add your liquid, turn your Instant Pot to high pressure, set to 4 minutes and let it build up the pressure. Allow the pressure to release naturally for about 10 minutes, then release the rest and remove the lid. Give it a quick stir and serve it up.
