Instant Pot Corn on the Cob (Fresh or Frozen!)

January 5, 2021 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob is SO easy and delicious! There’s nothing better than fresh sweet corn dripping with melted butter and salt in the summer time. This is a side dish that goes well with almost any meal and it’s never been easier than in your pressure cooker.

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob

My baby boy (a term I use lightly since he’ll be 10 years old this month) loves yellow and orange foods. He actually has never said that; it’s just an observation that my husband and I have made.

His favorite foods are mac & cheese (or any kind of pasta really), popcorn (buttered!), carrots, french fries (do they qualify as yellow?), and cheese dip. I’m not sure he’s even aware that he always wants food in this color range, but he does. Daily.

Anyway… last year a friend of the family gave us a 50-gallon trash bag full of fresh-picked sweet corn. They’d already put up all the corn they could possibly use for a year so they were sharing with anyone who wanted some.

We happily took a bag and added some to our freezer. But we also wanted to cook some right away and enjoy it fresh – when it’s best! That’s when I decided we’d try some in my Instant Pot.

And it worked like a dream. Why? Let me explain.

How to Choose the Best Fresh Corn

  • If you’re picking the corn yourself, look for tiny holes in the husks and avoid those ears. That means there are probably insects or worms in the corn.
  • If you’re buying fresh corn, look for bright green husks. Also, the tassels on the end should be silky and brown or golden. Not dry, fragile, or black. If the husks are dull or dark, OR the tassels are black and dry, the corn is not fresh.
  • If you’re using fresh-picked corn, it’s best to cook it or freeze it within a day or two of picking.
  • For this recipe, I used shucked corn but you can also cook it in the husk – see the tips below!

Cooking Frozen Corn in the Instant Pot

I can hear it now… someone asking, “What about frozen corn?” Yes, you can cook frozen corn in the Instant Pot. While I highly recommend fresh sweet corn (there’s just nothing better!), I understand that fresh is not always available or easy, so frozen is a great alternative.

And since we got a 50-gallon bag of corn, obviously we couldn’t eat it all while fresh, so here’s how to cook frozen corn in an Instant Pot:

  • Place the trivet in your pressure cooker, then add 1 cup of cold water.
  • Place the frozen corn cobs right on the rack, stacking them alternately, just as you do the fresh corn.
  • Seal Instant Pot and cook for 4 minutes on High Pressure.
  • Quick Release the pressure when it’s done to avoid over-cooking.

Why Cook Corn in the Instant Pot?

This may seem silly to some of you but we got a new cooktop when we remodeled our kitchen in 2019 and I hate it (but can’t really afford to replace it so soon).

It’s a smooth, touch-controlled glass-top contraption, and boiling anything on our cooktop is a nightmare. The minute one drop of water splashes out of a pot, the cooktop shuts off.

Do you know how often boiling water splashes out? A lot. And it’s so freakin’ frustrating to start a pot of water, then go do something else while I wait, only to come back and find it off and not boiling because a drop of water splashed out. Ugh!

Anyway… that’s why I love that I can now cook corn in my Instant Pot and never have to boil it again! It’s foolproof and so, so easy. Let me show you.

But first…

Tips for Instant Pot Corn on the Cob

  • If you’d like to cut the ends off your corn and cook it in the husk, you can! Just add 1 minute to your cooking time.
  • Change up your corn with toppings! Our favorite toppings are salt and butter, but you can also add parmesan, garlic, cilantro, chili powder, and/or lime juice.
  • Approximately 6 ears of corn will fit in a 6-quart Instant Pot and up to 9 ears will fit in an 8-quart Instant Pot. If the stalks are too long, trim them!
  • Quick-release the pressure as soon as the timer is done to avoid overcooking!

Now let me show you the easy-peasy steps:

Fresh corn on the cob cleaned and uncleaned next to an Instant Pot

First clean the corn and remove the silks.

Pouring water into the Instant Pot

Next, place the trivet in your Instant Pot, then pour the water in.

Fresh corn on the cob in the Instant Pot

Place the corn in the pot, alternating the directions they’re turned so that there’s some space between them.

Seal the lid closed and set to High Pressure for 2 minutes. When done cooking, quick-release the pressure.

Cooked corn on the cob in the Instant Pot

Open lid carefully and remove corn. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings!

  • Instant Pot Mississippi Pot Roast
  • Instant Pot Potato Salad

Place your ramekins on top of the rack and cover each ramekin with foil.  No need to wrap it in the foil as this is just to keep the condensation out of your dessert.

Note: If you use 4-ounce ramekins, you should be able to fit four in at once. With 6-ounce ramekins, you might only be able to fit two at a time. If you do that, just chill the extras while they wait for their turn.

Place the top on and set to 18 minutes on high pressure and use the quick release function on your pressure cooker.

Carefully remove from the pressure cooker and let cool for 5-7 minutes.

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes

February 1, 2020 by Rose Atwater 2 Comments

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes are easy, cheesy and delicious! I absolutely love how much time is saved by making these cheesy potatoes in my Instant Pot!

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes with pinterest text overlay

My husband is the KING of Au Gratin potatoes at our house. He’s an amazing cook and I rarely dislike anything he makes, but when he makes cheesy, delicious Au Gratin Potatoes… I’m full-on drooling!

However, Au Gratin potatoes take a long time to cook. He usually bakes them for at least an hour and by the time you add in peeling, slicing and all that jazz, they’re not a fast dish.

Until now.

Recently, on a night when I was cooking instead of Richy, I decided to try my hand at Au Gratin potatoes. But since I was short on time, I figured out a way to do them in the Instant Pot.

This cut my cook time down dramatically and while they weren’t as amazing as my husband’s homemade, from-scratch, full-on version… these were really delicious!

Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is. So let’s make them!

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 3 pounds potatoes, peeled and sliced evenly (about 1/4 inch slices)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon white or black pepper (or both… we love both!)
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk (we use whole)
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided

First, mix together the water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt and add to the pressure cooker pot. Then add the peeled, sliced potatoes.

Sliced potatoes in pot for Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes

For slicing the potatoes, I cannot recommend highly enough getting a mandoline. I bought my hubby one a few years ago and it’s one of his most favorite kitchen tools!

You get perfect slices, every time and SUPER fast! We use it several times a week for potatoes, onions, tomatoes, carrots, cheese, and more! Check out the one we have here.

Anywho… after you add the potatoes, salt and water – set your Instant Pot to manual and cook for 1 minute.

Easy Instant Pot Au Gratin Potatoes cheesy sauce

While the potatoes are cooking, you’ll make the cheese sauce on your cooktop. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour, remaining salt and pepper. Cook for a minute, then add the milk and bring to a boil.

Mix in two cups of the cheese and remove from heat; stir until completely melted and combined.

After the potatoes are done, quick-release the pressure, then prepare a baking dish with nonstick spray. Layer the potatoes with the cheese sauce in the dish.

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans

October 25, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans are made with fresh green beans and bacon, of course, in true Southern-style. These are a terrific side dish any day of the week and especially perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Years!

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans with bacon and onion in a white bowl on a blue placemat

My husband jokes that green beans and corn were the only two vegetables his family ever ate when he was growing up. He actually says they had three vegetables… green beans, French-style green beans, and corn. ?

Coming from a family that ate all the vegetables, I had my work cut out for me exposing him to new vegetables. Granted, I was the pickiest of my siblings so I don’t eat all the things my family eats, but I certainly ate a bigger variety than Richy did.

But in the meantime, I needed to figure out how to add a little variety to our green beans and dress them up more than just dumping a can in a pot and heating.

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans with bacon and onion in a white bowl on a blue placemat

Add bacon & onions to green beans for flavor!

One thing my family always did to add a lot of extra flavor to green beans was throw in a slice or two of bacon.  My mama would add onions too. As a young girl and teen, I didn’t appreciate the onions but now that I’m a little older, I don’t mind them so much.

Anyway, with that in mind, I’m sharing a recipe for how we ate green beans growing up.  The only thing I’m changing is that I’m making them in my Instant Pot.

Instead of having to simmer them for hours on the stove-top or bake them in the oven, cooking them in the pressure cooker dramatically reduces the cooking time.  And also? They’re still delicious!!

Benefits of cooking green beans in your Instant Pot:

Being able to cook them in the Instant Pot has other benefits too.

  • For one, if you’re cooking a large meal for the holidays, this opens up one more burner on your stove. If you’re anything like me, oven space and cooktop space is always limited during the holidays so this is an easy way to free up some space.
  • Also, you can cook them so easily and so quickly… you can focus on other dishes that’ll need more attention.  I love it that I can literally make these at the “last minute” and have them ready in no time!

That sounds like a win-win to me!  So let’s get to it…

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans Recipe

Instant Pot Southern Green Beans ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need for the recipe:

  • 2 pounds fresh green beans, washed and trimmed
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 4 slices bacon, cut into pieces
  • 1 ½ cup chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
deglazing the Instant Pot pot with broth after cooking bacon

Turn on your Instant Pot and press the “saute” button. When the display reads “hot,” add the chopped bacon and cook until crisp. Remove the bacon and reserve for garnish, if desired.

Then add the chicken stock to the pot and deglaze the bottom by scraping the cooked on pieces with a wooden spoon. Cancel the saute function.

Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake

October 5, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

Many many years ago, I made this Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake … except it wasn’t in the Instant Pot. It was in the oven. I posted the recipe over here on Rose Bakes. I loved that cheesecake. Made it several times. Then somehow, forgot about it. But recently, I decided to make it again, Instant Pot style! This Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake is two of my most favorite desserts rolled into one… cheesecake and chocolate chip cookies.  Or cookie dough rather ? Slice of Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake on plate with ganache and chocolate chip cookies While the texture is a little bit different, the final result is an incredible, rich and delicious cheesecake. side view of Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake on cake stand with ganache and chocolate chip cookies
The crust is made from Chips Ahoy! Cookies. You could also use Famous Amos cookies (although it would take a few more because they’re smaller cookies).  Either way – chocolate chip cookies, butter and sugar make for a divine crust! slices of Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake on plates with forks The cheesecake batter is pretty standard, but adding in balls of chocolate chip cookie dough really makes it extra special. Then, as if it needed more yummines, I drizzled ganache on top. Ohmyword… so good!
Are you drooling yet?  Let’s get started!!

How to make the cookie dough crust.

Chips Ahoy crust for Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake pressed into springform pan First, you want to prepare the cookie crust. This is the easist thing in the world.  In a small bowl, mix together crushed chocolate chip cookies, sugar and melted butter. Press onto the bottom of a 7-inch springform pan and use the bottom of a glass to get into the corners – works great! Set aside.

Making the cheesecake filling.

Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake batter in mixing bowl with silicone spatula Next, mix up the filling. The secret to the filling is having the cream cheese at room temperature and mixing it until there are NO lumps. This could take several minutes of mixing with a hand mixer, but you want to make sure it’s super creamy and smooth! The last ingredient you’ll add to the filling (see details below) is the eggs. You’ll want to fold these in very gently with as little mixing as possible. I actually prick the yolks with cake tester then use a silicone spatula to mix it up – not an electric mixer! pouring Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake batter into springform pan
Pour the filling into your prepared crust and then gently tap the pan on the counter several times so that any air bubbles rise to the top and pop! pressing cookie dough into Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake batter in springform pan Next, in a small bowl, you’re going to make the cookie dough.  When it’s finished, take small spoons of the cookie dough and place them on top of the batter. pressing cookie dough into Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake batter in springform pan Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake before baking in springform pan Use a butter knife to push the dough down and then smooth it over the top so that the cookie dough is completely covered. Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake wrapped in foil before baking Last step before cooking… tightly cover your pan with aluminum foil – this is very important to prevent you from ending up with a soggy cheesecake. I like to wrap it completely, bottom and top. Then place the pan on the trivet in your Instant Pot. Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom, then seal the lid and cook on high pressure for 45 minutes. After it’s done, let it naturally release. Remove it from the pot, take off the foil and let it completely cool on a wire rack.  It will look VERY jiggly at this point, but that’s okay!  After it’s cooled, place the cheesecake in the fridge to cool overnight. Keep it in the springform pan!!!

Remove the sides from the springform pan.  Then, using a large spatula or bench scraper, gently lift the cheesecake off the bottom and onto a plate or cake stand.

I also added some fresh whipped cream and a few chocolate chip cookies just for good measure. 😉 slice of Instant Pot Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake with ganache, chocolate chip cookies and whipped cream on top

  8. After 45 minutes, do a natural release (do not open the valve). Once you can open the pot, take the cheesecake out, remove the foil and let it completely cool.
  9. Once cool, put your cheesecake into the fridge overnight.  
  10. When ready to serve, make the ganache by microwaving the heavy cream in 30 second intervals until its steaming. Then pour it over the chocolate chips and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Then whisk it until smooth and drizzle over the cheesecake. Garnish with more cookies and whipped cream if desired.
  11. Enjoy!
    ENJOY!

Instant Pot Goulash

September 20, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

This classic Instant Pot Goulash is one of those one-pot meals that I will be making again and again! It’s hearty, easy, filling and delicious!!  When trying to describe it – it falls somewhere along the lines of a little bit like chili and a little bit like spaghetti or maybe like a chili-mac?  No matter what you call it, it’s just so, so good.

I’m gonna fess-up and tell you – I’ve never had goulash before. But when I saw a version of this on Pinterest, it called out to me. I love one-pot meals and casseroles. We’re big fans of anything that’s easy, fast, filling and good.  And the “good” part is most important! So we made it…

Instant Pot Goulash

Also, my kids are not super picky eaters but they don’t mind calling out a bad dish when I make one either.  This Instant Pot Goulash, they decided, is not a bad dish!  As the weather starts to cool off, I know I’ll be making this again and again!

By the way, in my googling and researching to write this post, it came to my attention that this dish is also called Johnny Marzetti, or American Chop Suey.  I’ve never heard of either in my 43 years, but that’s okay. I like to learn something new every day!

Oh – there’s also Hungarian Goulash.  That’s not what this is… this is American Goulash I guess?  Made even more American because it’s made in the Instant Pot.

Alrighty, so what’s in this Instant Pot Goulash (for those of you unfamiliar, like me)?  It’s got ground beef, noodles, tomato products, spices, and cheese. I mean – these are staple ingredients in most of our kitchens, right?

I was so happy and surprised to see that I already had everything I needed the first time I decided to make this!  Also – it only takes 1 minute of cook time once you have it all in the Instant Pot. You cannot beat that!

Instant Pot Country Style Ribs

September 7, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

Just because summer is almost over and grilling season is coming to an end, doesn’t mean you have to do without ribs! These Instant Pot Country Style Ribs can be made any time of year and they are incredible!

Instant Pot Country Style Ribs with BBQ Sauce on white plate

When you think of ribs, it usually involves the barbecue grill, lots of foil, bottles of barbecue sauce, hours of prep and painstaking meticulous planning for just the right temperatures, and time.

Well, not with these ribs.  The Instant Pot will speed up your time, and you’ll come out with some great, fall-off-the-bone ribs, that are sure to please.  You will love this time saving delicious recipe.

Instant Pot Country Style Ribs on white plate

HERE’S WHAT YOU DO for INSTANT POT COUNTRY-STYLE RIBS:

First, I have to talk you through prepping the meat and it’s kind of icky, if you ask me.  But it’s necessary so here we go. I didn’t have a pic of this step, by the way.  So, ribs have a membrane on the back side of the rack that needs to be removed. It’s on the opposite side of the meaty part of the ribs, and it’s silvery white. It sort of looks like fat, but it’s not.

Take a sharp knife, and start at one corner on the back side of the ribs, and run the knife under the membrane to loosen it. Pull it back just a little, and use a paper towel get get hold of the loosened membrane, and pull it off. You may have to do this in 2 or 3 segments to loosen and pull, as some racks will have a membrane that comes off easily, and others will take a little work.

Once you have the membrane removed, place the ribs in a flat bottomed dish (like an 11 X 14) and sprinkle with liquid smoke. Let the ribs sit for about 30 minutes, and absorb the liquid smoke.

After 30 minutes, hold the ribs up, and allow any liquid remaining to run off into the dish. Lay the ribs back in the dish, and place in the refrigerator.

Instant Pot Country Style Ribs with dry rub

In a Ziploc bag, place the garlic salt, seasoned salt, seasoned pepper, chili powder, dry mustard, paprika, onion powder, and celery salt. Close the bag and shake vigorously to blend all dry ingredients. Once ingredients are all blended, open the bag, and sit the bag in a bowl.

Remove the ribs from the refrigerator. Using a spoon, generously sprinkle the dry rub over the meaty side of the ribs, and press it into the meat. Once you’ve covered the ribs in the dry rub, cover the ribs with plastic wrap.  Then place in the refrigerator overnight to allow the flavors to be absorbed.

The next day, remove the ribs from the refrigerator. Place the trivet in the Instant Pot, and add 1 cup of water, and 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce. Then curve the ribs around and place them on the trivet, or leaning against the inside liner of the Instant Pot.

Place the lid on the Instant Pot, and turn it until it beeps and locks. Make sure the pressure valve is set to ‘SEALING’, and press the Manual button, and set the time to 30 minutes.

Allow the Instant Pot to automatically build and release the pressure. Once the Instant Pot is completely done, and has released all the pressure (about an hour), turn the valve to venting. Use a pot holder to do this to make sure all pressure has been released.

Line an oven-safe dish with aluminum foil for easy clean-up. Then remove the lid to the Instant Pot, and place the ribs in the dish. In a separate dish, pour half the bottle of Country Bob’s sauce. Also add the 1 cup of honey, and stir well. Pour this honey barbecue sauce over the ribs. Then place the ribs in the oven at 350°F for 30 minutes. This time in the oven will crisp the ribs and melt the barbecue sauce into the ribs.

It will get a little gooey in the oven, which blends the dry rub and barbecue flavors together. Once ribs have browned a little, and sauce is gooey, remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy.

NOTE: You may want to double the dry rub recipe for 2 full racks of ribs, depending on how much dry rub is preferred. Dry rub recipe given will make enough for about 2 – 3 pounds of ribs, which is approximately 1 rack.

Instant Pot Potato Salad

June 25, 2019 by Rose Atwater Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Potato Salad is so delicious and easy to make!  This is a classic potato salad with no onions or relish, although you can add either or both to make it your own! It’s cool, creamy, loaded with texture and flavor!

instant pot potato salad in white bowl with fork and no onions and no relish

 

First… here’s a short video for you showing how I make the potato salad:

Potato Salad is easily one of my most favorite summer dishes! But I’m pretty picky about how I make it.  I don’t like raw onions. I really don’t like celery. And while I will eat potato salad with relish, that’s not favorite thing either.

I also make two different kinds of potato salad… this recipe I’m about to share and a “Loaded Baked Potato Potato Salad” that has bacon, cheddar cheese, sour cream and more!! Doesn’t that sound terrific? Maybe I’ll share that recipe soon.

Instant Pot Potato Salad

But for now, I present to you, my classic potato salad recipe with no onions, no celery and no relish.  This is a “southern” potato salad, so I do use mayo, mustard and boiled eggs.  I heard recently that there are potato salad recipes with no mayonaise and it shocked me.

I seriously had no clue… how can it be potato salad if it doesn’t have mayo??  But after a little googling, I was convinced… there are a million ways to make potato salad without mayonaise.

Anywho, one reason I especially love making potato salad in my Instant Pot is there’s no risk over overcooking the potatos and ending up with that mushy, watery texture. By cooking in a pressure cooker, the pototoes are cooked perfectly while retaining their firmess and original texture.

You see that also in this Instant Pot Baked Potatoes post.  In fact, this recipe starts in the exact same way as that one… with boiled eggs added in.

Also, I can cook the eggs at the same time as the potatoes and it comes together so quickly.

One last thing – I prefer russet potatos for potato salad. But I have made this same recipe with red potatoes and with Yukon Gold or yellow potatoes as well. All varieties are delicious!!

Alrighty, let’s get down to the recipe.  You’ll need 4 pounds of potatoes, water, eggs, mayonaise, mustard (I use spicy mustard, but standard yellow works great), then salt & pepper.

Intant Pot Potato Salad is so delicious and easy to make!  This is a classic potato salad with no onions or relish, although you can add either or both to make it your own! It’s cool, creamy, loaded with texture and flavor!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pounds potatoes* (about 8 large)
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (not low-fat, not Miracle Whip)
  • 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

Scrub your potatoes clean. Stab with a fork 4-5 times each.

Pour 1 cup of water in your Instant Pot. Place the rack or steamer basket in the bottom, then place your potatoes on top.  Then place the eggs on top of the potatoes.

Lock the lid and set the vent to “Sealed”.

Set to manual pressure for 6 minutes.*

After it beeps, use quick release and open the pressure cooker.

When the potatoes and eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them both and chop.  See my video here for how to quickly chop an egg.

Add the potaotes back to the pot, then the eggs and other ingredients.  Mix until well incorporated, then serve warm or chill for an hour or so if you like cool potato salad.
