MAPLE AND BROWN SUGAR INSTANT POT® OATMEAL

Maple and Brown Sugar Instant Pot® Oatmeal image

Oatmeal is one of my favorite things to make in the Instant Pot® because it's foolproof, hands-off, and can be customized a number of different ways. This version of Instant Pot oatmeal is a pot-in-pot pressure cooker oatmeal recipe. This recipe will yield oatmeal with a firm texture (since that's how our family likes it). For softer, mushier oatmeal, increase the pressure cook time by 1 minute.

INSTANT POT MAPLE WALNUT OATMEAL

Instant Pot Maple Walnut Oatmeal image

I love my electric pressure cooker! I bought the Pampered Chef brand and all it's available accessories. I use it quite frequently and always with wonderful results! This oatmeal is so creamy with crunchy walnuts dotted throughout. It is a thinner oatmeal than if you made one of those instant oatmeal packets. Sometimes I add raisins, which plump up during cooking! My family will only eat oatmeal fixed this way now since I first made this a few years ago!

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 cup(s) water
2 cup(s) milk
1 cup(s) quick cooking oats
1/2 cup(s) applesauce, unsweetened or 1 ripe banana, mashed
2 teaspoon(s) cinnamon
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla
2 tablespoon(s) dark molasses
1/2 cup(s) chopped walnuts
1/2 teaspoon(s) maple extract
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
2/3 cup(s) sugar
1/2 cup(s) raisins(optional)

Steps:

In a pot type accessory mix together all the ingredients. Cover with foil or the matching lid to the accessory.
Place trivet in the instant pot insert, pour in 1 cup of water. Lower pot onto trivet using a sling. (If you don't have a sling you can make one out of foil.)
Place lid on Instant Pot, make sure it is in the sealing position. Turn on high pressure for 13 minutes.
Allow to slow release for at least 5 minutes. If left longer it won't hurt anything. Do a quick release to release any pressure left.
Remove pot carefully. Remove lid and stir well, but carefully if your pot is really full. Allow to stand for 5 minutes, it will thicken up some in this time. Enjoy!
If you don't have molasses, substitute brown sugar for the white sugar.

Tips:

Choose rolled oats over quick-cooking or steel-cut oats for a creamier texture.
Use unsweetened almond milk to keep the oatmeal dairy-free.
Add a drizzle of maple syrup to taste, or use honey or brown sugar as an alternative sweetener.
Top the oatmeal with additional chopped walnuts, dried cranberries, or fresh fruit for extra flavor and texture.
Store leftover oatmeal in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

This Instant Pot Maple Walnut Oatmeal is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option that can be easily customized to your liking. With its creamy texture, nutty flavor, and natural sweetness, this oatmeal is sure to become a family favorite. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, give this recipe a try!
