Equipment

  • pressure cooker

Ingredients

Baked Milk

  • 2 cups whole milk

Instant Pot Millet Porridge

  • 1 cup millet
  • 1 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp butter

Toppings

  • dried cranberries, pecans, honey, cinnamon

Instructions

Baked Milk

  • Preheat the oven to 325 F. While the oven is preheating, pour the milk into a stovetop and ovenproof pot. Bring the milk to a boil, and then place the pot into the fully preheated oven.
  • Bake uncovered for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Then turn the oven off and let the milk cool in the oven until warm, about 1 hour.
  • Once the milk is baked, it will be covered by a thick and very brown skin. You can just discard it. Strain the milk and enjoy.

Instant Pot Millet Porridge

  • Add millet, water, sugar and salt into the Instant Pot and set the pressure cook mode for 10 minutes.
  • Quick release, fluff with the fork and add butter. Pour the baked milk a little at a time, to reach the desired creamy consistency.
  • Garnish with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

To make baked milk, use a regular stainless steel ovenproof pot or a ceramic baking dish. Cast iron pans and Dutch ovens conduct heat a lot better, so the milk will evaporate almost completely in 2 1/2 to 3 hours. 
Baked milk will keep in the airtight container in the fridge for about 3 days.
