Instant Pot Corn on the Cob Recipe
Servings: 6 servings
Looking for a quick and tasty way to make corn on the cob? This Instant Pot recipe will have you enjoying perfectly cooked corn in no time!
Ingredients
- 6 pieces* corn on the cob *you can make any amount that fits in your Instant Pot
Instructions
- Remove the husks and silks from the corn and trim the ends. Rinse under cold water.
- Place the trivet in the bottom of your Instant Pot and stack the corn, alternating rows by a quarter turn.
- Add cold water to the Instant Pot: 1 cup for a 6qt or 1.5 cups for an 8qt model.
- Put the lid on the pot and set the vent to “Seal”. Press “Pressure Cook” or “Manual” and set it to cook for 3 minutes on high pressure (or 2 minutes if making ahead to reheat later).
- When the timer goes off, turn off the Instant Pot and do a quick release (carefully—there will be a lot of hot steam!).
- When the pressure has been released, take off the lid and remove the corn from the Instant Pot.
- Serve with butter and a sprinkle of salt and pepper (or however you love to eat your corn on the cob!)
Notes
*Amount of corn: This method stays the same whether you’re cooking one ear of corn or filling your Instant Pot to its max.
To make ahead: Cool the corn and place it in an airtight container or ziptop bag. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the grill.
To reheat on the grill: Place the cooked corn directly on the grill, turning every 15-30 seconds, until color develops in spots and the corn is warmed through.
