It's always a good morning when you can enjoy freshly baked oatmeal–especially when it’s apple cinnamon flavored. Cooking Instant Pot Baked Oatmeal makes my morning so much easier–I love that with a pressure cooker, you don’t have to babysit your food while you cook it.
Prepare your pot: Add 2 cups of water to the pot and set trivet at the bottom. Spray the inside of your mason jars, coffee mugs, or large ramekins with oil. coconut oil spray
Add your ingredients - both dry ingredients and wet ingredients: Combine all of the ingredients together and mix well with a spoon. You can also add all of the ingredients into a bowl and transfer the oat mixture to the jars one by one. ½ cup oats, ⅓ cup almond milk, ¼ tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp cinnamon, ½ tsp vanilla, 1 tsp maple syrup, 1 eggs, ¼ cup apple
Add oatmeal cups to pot: Be careful to set them down flat so they don’t tip over.
Cook for 10 minutes: Close and lock the lid, set the cooking time on high pressure for 10 minutes. When cook time is done, quick release the pressure. Then remove the lid and carefully lift out the oatmeal cups.
Enjoy: Serve while warm or take with you on your way out of the house. Add extra syrup, sliced bananas or other fruit like fresh berries, peanut butter, chocolate chips, or any other favorite toppings.
To make multiple servings:
1-4 servings can be cooked for 10 minutes in individual mugs. If you're making a dish of oatmeal with more servings, cook up to 8 servings for 20 minutes.
Notes
Cutting the apples small helps the oatmeal stay together a bit better while it's cooking. If the oatmeal feels a little dry after a couple days in the fridge, add some almond milk to your bowl before microwaving your serving.
