What is baked oatmeal? 

Traditionally baked oatmeal is made in the oven…well the Instant Pot is so versatile that it can do almost anything in the kitchen, including baking! Baked oatmeal involves mixing up your oatmeal recipe and then baking it…It’s simple enough but can be time consuming. The easiest way to cut down on that cooking time is with the Instant Pot! 

Is oatmeal healthy? 

Oatmeal is a heart healthy way to start your day. This particular healthy baked oatmeal recipe is 21 Day Fix friendly as well as Weight Watchers friendly. There are so many great benefits to starting your day with a healthy breakfast, with this easy recipe you’ll love that there’s no extra work involved. 

Is this a baked oatmeal recipe? 

Yes! I’ll show you how to make this Instant Pot baked apple cinnamon oatmeal in individual cups. It’s a great way to have breakfast ready to go and already portioned out in serving size cups! 

How to Make Instant Pot Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Cups: 

1) Combine all the ingredients in a coffee mug. Mix well so that all of the oatmeal is wet.

2) Add 2 cups water in the Instant Pot insert and place the trivet on the bottom. Place the coffee mug in the Instant Pot and lock the lid into place, closing the pressure valve. My Instant Pot was able to hold 4 coffee mugs.

3) Cook on high pressure using the manual setting for 10 minutes. When the done, turn the Instant Pot off and let the pressure release naturally. Remove the mug from the Instant Pot. Be careful, they will be hot. If yours are not getting down in that time, see this chart for adjustments.

*Cooking time is the same for 1 mug or 4*

4) Serve while warm, or take with you on your way out of the house.

Tip: If you want to be able to pop it out of the mug spray the mug with coconut oil before adding the ingredients.

Note: You can also mix the ingredients in a large bowl and pour into the mugs, canning jars, or ramekins. 21 Day Fix container count per mug: 2Y, 1tsp, .5R, and .25P.
