Ingredients
Apple Crisp:
- 8 apple I used small/medium green apples - cored, peeled, and cubed into 1.5-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup water
Topping:
- 2/3 cup old fashioned oats not instant
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Remove the skins from the apples, leaving some on. Remove it from no more than 1/2 of the apple, otherwise, they will get too mushy when cooked.
- Cut the apples into thick cubes and add them to a large bowl. Toss with lemon juice.
- Add the cubed apples to the Instant Pot with the rest of the Crisp ingredients and stir together.
- Close the lid and close the steam valve. Cook on high pressure for 0 or 1 minute. If your apple chunks are smaller, to ensure they don't get too soft then cook for 0 mins. It still takes time to pressurize so do NOT worry, zero doesn't mean they won't cook.
- Cook for 1 minute if you have larger chunks or if you want softer apples. Once done cooking do a Quick Release.
- In the meantime, in a medium bowl mix the topping ingredients until well combined.
- Open the IP lid and click on saute.
- Stir gently the apple mixture and sprinkle the topping on top. Gently push down into the liquid letting it cook until bubbling, for about 1 minute.
- Stir very gently and after that turn off the IP.
- Serve immediately with ice cream and caramel sauce.
