Brandon’s Oh She Fancy Oatmeal
Courtesy of Brandon Tidwell
Ingredients
- 2 cups - Irish Oats
- 4-6 apples - I like to have a mix of sweet apples like Golden Delicious/Gala with a few firm apples like Honey Crisps/Pink Ladies
- 2 tsp - grated ginger
- 2 tbs - Butter
- 2 tbs - Brown Sugar
- 1/2 tsp - Salt
- 1 tbs - Vanilla Extract
- 3 cups - Water... or 2 cups Water, 1 cup Apple Juice
- For steel-cut oats, it’s 3 cups liquid to 1 cup oats
- For old fashioned rolled oats, it’s 2 cups liquid to 1 cup oats
- So this recipe is rather... thick, and unsurprisingly gets ‘burn’ warnings
- Spices: (approximately)
- 1-2 tbs - Cinnamon
- 1 tsp - All Spice
- 1 tsp - Turmeric
- 1 tsp - Ginger
- 1 tsp - Garam Masala
- 1//4 tsp - Nutmeg
Instructions
- 1 Peel And Rough Cut Apples Into: Peel and rough cut apples into 1/4 inch cubes
- 2 Peel And Grate Ginger: Peel and grate ginger
- 3 Add Butter To Instant Pot And: Add butter to Instant Pot and set to "Saute"
- 4 Once Butter Is Melted Add Spices: Once butter is melted add spices and saute for 1 minute
- 5 Stir In Oats And Saute For: Stir in oats and saute for 3-4 minutes
- 6 Add Apples, Ginger, Brown Sugar, Salt: Add apples, ginger, brown sugar, salt
- 7 Add Liquid (Water, Apple Juice, Vanilla): Add liquid (water, apple juice, vanilla) and stir to combine
- 8 Put Lid On The Instant Pot: Put lid on the Instant Pot and set it to "Manual" [or “normal”] for 5 3 minutes. Once it completes cooking either let it naturally release its pressure or wait 10 20 minutes and manually release pressure.
- 9 Here, Set It To High Pressure: Here, set it to high pressure. After a few minutes it will start to count down from 3 minutes. After it reaches zero it will count up. When it reaches 20 minutes, release any remaining pressure and remove the lid
- 10 It Will Be Thick: It will be thick! I normally add about 1/3 cup of Oat Milk when I reheat it.

- 14 Notes And Variations: Notes and Variations:
- 15 Kevin - Use 2 Cups Of: Kevin - Use 2 cups of water and 2 cups of apple juice. Also, set the instant pot to low pressure for 3 minutes. If you get a burn notice do this: stir it, then wait until burn alert is off. Set it back to pressure for 1 (zero if possible). Let it naturally release (wait for the safety to drop on its own and you can open the lid).
