Hands-off sweet breakfast grits made in the pressure cooker - no constant stirring.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup grits (not instant)
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, optional

Directions

  1. Add the grits, water, milk, and salt to the Instant Pot and stir.
  2. Seal and cook on high pressure 10 minutes, then allow a 10-minute natural release.
  3. Whisk in the brown sugar, butter, and vanilla. If thin, simmer on saute a minute; if thick, loosen with milk.

Notes

Adapted from Sugar, Spice and Glitter. Use a quick release with care - grits can sputter.
