Chicken Noodle Pho
Apple and Cinnamon Oatmeal
| By : |
Heart-healthy steel-cut oatmeal cooks up perfectly in no time in the pressure cooker, and cinnamon and apple make this an autumn morning must. If you’ve never tried steel-cut oats, they’re instant oats’ chewier, healthier cousin. If you’re gluten-intolerant, be sure to buy oats that are labeled as gluten-free. Top with chopped walnuts for a bit of protein.
Ingredients

Instructions
- To preheat the Instant Pot, select the Sauté function. When display reads "hot", add the butter and melt.
- Add the oats and stir, cooking for 2 minutes.
- Add the water, apple, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt and stir.
- Secure the lid. Select the Manual function and cook at high pressure for 7 minutes.
- Once cooking is complete, use a natural release for 10 minutes, then release any remaining pressure quickly. The oatmeal will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Serve the oatmeal topped with chopped fresh apple and more brown sugar. Enjoy!

So simple, i didnt use as much butter and used plain old cheap quick oats. It was just as delicious!
Love it!!!!
So easy, turned out great, grandkids loved it!
What king of oatmeal is this?
Good breakfast
Really good
Its alright. But making it on the hob is still faster.
Bake regular oats for 8-12 minutes in the oven to bring out their flavour, cook on the stove using enough milk to make creamy, and serve with apple matches.
Up water to 3C cook 15 minutes as recommended by hipcooking website and comes out perfect
I do! I do! I do believe in ferries.
Did not care for this.
Test

Steel cut oatmeal has a different texture from the quick cooking rolled oatmeal. It was good.
This was our first meal in the instant pot and it was a hit!
Super easy and delicious!
My instant pot kept saying burn. Will try with more water next time.
This is my first Instan Pot recipe and it was so easy! Everyone loved it. So much nicer than standing over a stove. We added a little agave nectar at the end for some added sweetness.
I love steel cut oats and usually make this in a crockpot overnight. I have also never browned the oats in melted butter, but the flavor was amazing! The whole batch was consumed for dinner!
Soo good
Easy peasy! A little soupy but it is delish. Wait a few minutes before calling everyone to eat 🙂
This is delicious. I now have tried 2 different Steel Cut oat recipes, this one (with the “Manual” setting) and another with the “Porridge” setting. Both turned out well – creamy. When first lifting the lid off it does look watery, but after stirring it becomes creamy.
So good!
Great!
Ok this recipe is so great I made it first time today.

Doesnt get any better or easier.
If use a high grade butter, you’ll probably want less butter. I’ve made this recipe twice now and 3 tbsp of butter is a bit too rich.
Time from start to table us actually 30 minutes; you have to factor in the natural pressure release as well as the initial heat-up time for the saute.
really delicious but burn, burn, burn… too much burn, no pressure cook
This is an incredible recipe. Im wondering if anyone has doubled or tripled the recipe for larger crowds? Did you increase the cooking time?
Excellent. Follow the receipe as is.
This is easiest and best recipe for breakfast
Super easy and yummy. I may try with rolled oats next time.
This is not dairy free nor vegan as it has butter. I will substitute with coconut oil.
You may want to alter the discription since it does include dairy.
I will try it!
Love this recipe
These time are totally off it takes 10 mins to build pressure then it take 10 mins to release the pressure after cooking. Correct me if im wrong but thats 34 mins! For oatmeal i can make on the stove in 5 to 8… who has that kind of time????
Easy and delicious. Can recipe be halved?
More of a question than a review… How to make in an 8 quart pot? Every recipe seems tailored for the smaller 6 quart unit.
I used walnut oil in place of the butter. Came out great.
Can this be made ahead and then rewarmed. I think it can, but wanted to make sure
Super easy. I never had steel cut oats before so it was a different texture for me to experience. Lol It came out good. We liked and i will be adding to my IP recipes.
Too buttery.
Used coconut oil and coconut sugar and cinammon stick. Smells so good and tastes wonderful.
Recipe says 4 servings but its soo good that’s really only 2 servings. Only suugestions would be to add more apples in IP, add chopped walnuts as a garnish, and a liitle almond milk for consistency.
Simple and good
Yes easy to make. I did a half recipe for 1 (a big bowl) but it came out a bit to loose. I prefer my oatmel on the thicker side. The taste is great but like a previous person mentione dthe “Real” time is quite long. Maybe I just have to get use to using my Instant Pot as this was my second time using it. Regardless I marked this as a favourite and make it again,
Great breakfast. I get it in the pot, turn it on and by the time I shower get dressed it is ready. So simple and so good.
SO good. Easy to make. Makes the house smell delicious. I am not a fan of oats but this recipe makes me love oats. My family loves this so its going on the rotation. Its apprx 350 calories / serving and it’s savory and sweet, will keep you full.
Delicious!
Amazing!!
Add more cinnamon and brown sugar than the recipe calls for.
Very easy to make and very good. I would agree to add anlittle more cinnamon, you can add more brown sugar to taste.
Overall recipe, conceptually – good. Some Instant Pots do not have a “Manual” button, instead they have a “Pressure Cook” button. Directions do not state that, and this was my first time using it, frustrating. Also, directions say select the “Saute” button at one point, at some point it needs to be canceled, assumption, as I received a “BURN” message on the front display panel at one point and had to spend 20 minutes scraping out the bottom of the inside of the pot that came with it, SMH.
Made it with coconut oil instead of butter. Turned out great. Going to try and double the recipe so i can have instant breakfasts ready for this week.
Made just as instructions, turned out perfect. I sauted the extra apple bits for topping with butter, pecans, cinnamon and brown sugar for a toasted, candied nut topping.
Too much like butter…
Easy and very good. I agree, too much butter. Will make again. Next time will reduce butter, add more cinnamon, apple & more water.
This recipe has become a morning staple. I LOVE it. Sauteing the oats in butter really helps the flavor and texture. I top mine with pure maple syrup when i eat it. Its delicious.
Amazing tAste…used an Ambrosia apple.
Very fast to prepare
Great recipe, easy to make. However, I did not like it with salt. Gross! I also tried it with mixed frozen berries and it was delicious
OMG best oatmeal ever!!!!
Used the instant pot max. Follow the instructions as written. Kept stirring the oats and butter while using saute part. Came out perfect. No burning
I started this exactly as the recipe called for, but tasted it after the NR. It was a bit bland, so I added more brown sugar and cinnamon at that point. Much better. In future, I will double the brown sugar, use 50% more cinnamon (that can always be added to taste at the end), and will use a heaping cup of oats, rather than a level cup. It was a bit thin. (FYI – I used regular oats as that’s what I had.)
I have’nt apples so i replace it by sultana dried grapes
Overall pretty good! Oats were not as creamy as I wanted. Will try again with an extra 1/2 cup of water. Served with sliced banana.
You need to remove the dairy free tag since the FIRST ingredient is butter!
Thank you for the correction.
If you would like to make this recipe dairy-free substitute butter with margarine
I love this recipe. It is a go to for sure.
My only challenge is I receive a burn notification every time I make it. I wish I knew what I was doing wrong.
If there are any brown bits from sauteing then you will need to deglaze the inner pot as that may trip the burn warning. Additionally you can either use nonstick spray or the pot-in-pot method.
Awesome.
Do instant pot is not Manual?
I can ultra!?
Use Pressure Cook in place of Manual. It is the same program just renamed.
Our favorite recipe, its perfect everytime!
Delicious!
Made with rolled oats, it was Delicious! The apple flavor permeated the dish. I did saute the apples with the butter before hand.
Side note, don’t pressure cook rolled “instant” oats. You’ll burn the oats to the bottom of the pot.
Other side note. Still super easy to clean the pot.
Best oatmeal I have had!!!
Love this recipe! One question – fat time I made it, I added chia seeds to it plus a bit more water (not much) and got the dreaded “burn” message. Anyone know how much extra water to add if I add chia seeds? Other times I didn’t get the burn message, only this one when I added the seeds.
Last* time I made it…
Too easy!!!
Too yummy!!!
Chia seeds absorb water and add thickness to a dish. I would soak the Chia seeds first then add them to the recipe.
Good and tasty!!!
But it burnt before it even built up the pressure. So just finished cooking by constantly steering.without touching the bottom of the pan.
Without a doubt our family’s favorite Instant Pot meal! Absolutely love this oatmeal to start our day!
