Ingredients 

• Flour
• Coconut sugar – If you don’t have coconut sugar, brown sugar is an alternative.

• Apples – Any apple variety will work in this recipe. My faves are honey crisp or granny smith apples.
• Cinnamon
• Water
• Maple syrup

How to make this recipe

I love that this recipe is only about 10 minutes for prep time.

First, in a medium bowl, stir together the oats, flour, coconut sugar, and salt.  

Second, pour the coconut oil over the oat mixture and stir well, coating the oats well and getting some clumping action with the sugar.

Place the bowl in the fridge.

Next, peel and chop the apples into chunks. Place the chopped apples into the instant pot. 

Sprinkle them with cinnamon and pour the maple syrup over top.

Cover with water.

Then drop the oat mixture evenly on top of the apples. 

Finally, lock the lid in place, turn the valve to the sealing position, and pressure cook. 

Serve warm.

Expert tip

Placing the crumble topping in the refrigerator while peeling and chopping the apples helps to make a crunchier topping.

Recipe Variations

• Add chopped pecans to the oat mixture.
• For added fall flavors sprinkle half a tsp of nutmeg into the apple filling in the pressure cooker before covering it with the topping.

Serving Suggestions
