Ingredients
- 2 apples your choice of variety
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 6 tablespoons brown sugar use less if desired
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 cups oats old-fashioned, NOT quick
- 3 ½ cups water
Instructions
- Chop apples into ½-inch square cubes.
- Turn on Instant Pot saute mode. Melt butter and saute apples for 3 minutes.
- Cancel saute mode.
- Add the rest of the ingredients
- Press porridge mode and set the time for 1 minute. Make sure the vent is in the "sealing" position (see note).
- When the Instant Pot beeps, carefully move the vent to the "venting" position. I use a wooden spoon to do this to avoid burns. Let it vent completely before opening.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- The Instant Pot will take a few minutes to pressurize and de-pressurize; you don't need to push anything to make this happen. It will happen automatically.
- Sometimes the IP can give a burn notice when cooking oatmeal. I don’t have this problem in my 6 quart but I have had reports of it happening in the 8 quart. The oatmeal will not burn, but it may be golden brown on the bottom. This is normal and fine.
- Don't try to freeze this oatmeal as it will become very mushy when thawed.
- For an added delicious taste and texture, you can top the oatmeal with nuts (pecans, walnuts, or almonds) or dried fruit (raisins or cranberries) after cooking.
