  1. Start by taking your warm water or milk (needs to be 105 degrees F / 40 C) and pour it into a bowl
  2. Add in your sugar and yeast
  3. Stir and let sit for 5-10 minutes
  4. Now you will slowly add in your flour and salt
  5. You want to work your flour in slowly until it forms a ball that isn't sticky to touch. When you reach that texture, don't add any more flour
  6. Take your dough and knead it on a floured surface for about 2 minutes, or until the ball comes together nicely
  7. Place your bread in the Instant Pot, and cover with a glass lid
  8. Turn your yogurt setting on low, and do a 30-minute cook
  9. After the bread has doubled in size, remove bread dough from Instant Pot and layout on a floured surface
  10. Work the dough a bit more, and form into a ball
  11. Place in your parchment-lined or greased pan
  12. Cover and let rise on the counter for 20 minutes
  13. Now take a cup of water and pour it into your Instant Pot, inner pot
  14. Then add your trivet or a silicone sling and place your aluminum foil covered pan in the pressure cooker
  15. Close and lock the lid and turn the steam release handle to Sealing
  16. Pressure cook, High, 45 min
  17. Release pressure - Natural venting, 10 min
  18. Release off any leftover pressure
  19. Now uncover your bread
  20. Then place in oven or use air fryer lid, to broil the top of the bread
  21. Remove from oven and allow to cool a bit, then slice and serve
