Instructions
 

  • Select the “Sauté” function on the Instant Pot™ and set to “High.”
  • Add the olive oil and onion to the pot. Sauté, stirring frequently, until the onion softens and develops a bit of color, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, rosemary, thyme, crushed red pepper flakes, and fresh ginger. Stir to combine and cook, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned and the spices are fragrant, approximately 3-4 minutes.
  • Deglaze the pot by adding the balsamic vinegar and gently scraping the bottom of the unit to incorporate the brown bits into onion mixture.
  • Add the brown sugar, orange zest, orange chunks, and cherries to the Instant Pot™. Stir to combine and turn the unit off.
  • Add the lid and lock it into place, then set the release valve to “Sealing.” Select the “Manual” function and adjust the cook time to 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the top oven rack in the center position and pre-heat the oven to 350°F.
  • Arrange the croissant halves onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a Silpat™ baking mat or parchment paper. Top the bottom half of each croissant with 2 slices of Canadian bacon (or breakfast ham), and several thin slices of Brie, as shown. Set aside.
  • When the Instant Pot™ cook time is complete, immediately switch the pressure release valve to “Venting.” Once the steam is fully released and the pin drops, carefully remove the lid.
  • Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and stir into the chutney to thicken.
  • Transfer 2/3 of the chutney mixture to a blender and pulse several times until blended, but not completely smooth. Stir the blended chutney back into the Instant Pot™ and simmer for a couple minutes until the desired consistency is reached. Turn off the unit.
  • Spread two tablespoons of the warm chutney onto the top half of each croissant, as shown. Place the baking sheet in the oven and heat for 5-7 minutes, or just until the Brie is nicely melted, but not running off the sandwiches.
  • Remove from oven and add the baby arugula to each sandwich, if using, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
