Instant Pot Brownies

Rich Fudgy Brownies in the Instant Pot? YES, YOU CAN! These are quite possibly the best brownies I've ever eaten, and I know they're the best I've ever made. For THIS recipe I use a 6-inch springform pan if you're using a 7-inch pan cook on manual for 50 minutes and natural release for 10 minutes.

Instructions

  • set up your instant pot, add one cup of water, and the cooking rack to the pot
  • lightly grease a 6-inch springform pan with butter or use nonstick cooking spray, and cover the under side of the springform in foil to keep water from getting in

  • put the lid in place, set to sealing
  • press manual high pressure, and then set the cook for 55 minutes
  • check back to make sure the pot sealed and all is well with the pressure valve
  • once the timer goes off let the pot natural release for 15 minutes, do not quick release
  • carefully remove from the pot and wipe any water off the top of the foil
  • remove all foil and let cool 10-15 minutes
  • carefully run a knife around the brownie to help it release
  • open pan and let the brownie cool OR eat it while it's warm

Notes

For THIS recipe I use a 6-inch springform pan if you're using a 7-inch pan cook on manual for 50 minutes and natural release for 10 minutes.
