My take on this classic all-American dessert was featured on Good Morning America and is a crowd-pleaser for all. Whether you’re cozied up by a roaring fire as the snow falls or you took your Instant Pot with you on a camping trip, apples and spice make everything nice.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 12 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
| 5 Granny Smith apples (cored, peeled, and cut into 1 inch cubes, at room temperature) |
| 2 tsp ground cinnamon |
| 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg |
| 2 tbsp maple syrup |
| 2 tbsp caramel syrup (plus more for topping at the end) |
| 1/2 cup Water |
| 4 tbsp salted butter (1/2 stick) |
| 1/3 cup light brown sugar |
| 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats (not the instant kind) |
| 1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
| 1/2 tsp sea salt |
| Vanilla ice cream (for serving) |
Steps:
- Place the apples in the Instant Pot and top with the cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, caramel syrup, and water. Stir together well until a liquid consistency is reached and the apples are coated.
- Create the topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, then add the brown sugar, oats, flour, and salt. Mix well and pour over the apple mixture in the pot.
- Secure the lid, move the valve to the sealing position, and hit Manual or Pressure Cook on High Pressure for 2 minutes. When done, allow a full natural release (this will take 20–30 minutes).
- Serve right out of the pot, topped with vanilla ice cream and some more caramel sauce, if desired.
