Instant Pot Baked Potatoes (Fast & Easy)

Zutaten

• 1 cup Water
• 5 medium Potatoes ((I used Russet))
• Sea salt ((to taste))
• Black pepper ((to taste))
• Butter
• Sour cream
• Chives
• Cheddar cheese ((shredded))
• Cooked bacon ((crumbled))

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Place a trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add the water.

2. 2

   Use a fork to poke holes all over the potatoes. (This will prevent them from exploding while cooking.)

3. 3

   Place the potatoes on top of the trivet.

4. 4

   Place the lid on the Instant pot and make sure the knob is set to sealed.

5. 5

   Select Manual, then High pressure and set the time for 14 minutes. When the timer goes off, use the natural pressure release (this took 6 minutes for my 6-quart Instant Pot).

6. 6

   Carefully remove the lid of the Instant Pot. Use tongs to remove the potatoes from the Instant Pot and transfer to a plate.

7. 7

   Slice the potatoes down the middle and fluff the insides. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

8. 8

   If desired, add your favorite toppings: butter, sour cream, chives, cheddar cheese, and/or cooked bacon.
