Warm Cinnamon Apples in the Instant Pot

Ingredients

• 4 large apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and sliced
• ¼ cup brown sugar (adjust based on sweetness preference)
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• ¼ cup water (or apple juice for extra flavor)

Instructions

Prepare the Apples:

• Peel, core, and slice the apples into even wedges.

Mix Ingredients:

• In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and butter. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.

Add to Instant Pot:

• Place the apple mixture in the Instant Pot. Add the water (or apple juice) to the pot.

Cook:

• Close the lid, set the valve to sealing, and select “Pressure Cook” (or “Manual”) on high for 4 minutes.
• Once the cooking time is up, perform a quick release to release the pressure.

Serve:

• Carefully open the lid and stir the apples gently. They should be tender and coated in a syrupy sauce.
• Serve warm on their own or over ice cream, oatmeal, or pancakes.

Tips

• Variety: Feel free to mix different types of apples for varied flavors and textures.
• Add-ins: You can add raisins or chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
