Instant Pot® Apple Cinnamon Quinoa Porridge

Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa*
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup rice milk*
  • 1 apple organic, cored and chopped
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 4 Medjool dates pitted, chopped
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Add 1 cup uncooked quinoa to Instant Pot.
  • Add water, rice milk, apple, raisins, dates, vanilla and cinnamon and close lid.
  • Be sure the steam release is in the closed position and manually select 12 minutes high-pressure cooking time.
  • When the timer beeps at the end of the cooking cycle, turn the pot off and allow time for the natural release of pressure (about 15-20 minutes.)
  • Once pressure is released, carefully open the lid and stir porridge with a long-handled spoon.
  • Add more plant-milk to individual servings to achieve preferred consistency. Sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired.

Notes

*Rinse quinoa unless the quinoa is pre-rinsed. (Rinsing reduces bitterness.)
*Rice milk tends to be thinner than other plant-milks. If you use another plant-milk, increase the quantity by 1/4 cup.
