Instant Pot Baked Potatoes are perfectly fluffy and tender and are made in Instant Pot in less than half of the time and without any foil. I love baked potatoes, actually who doesn’t love them. A perfectly baked potato topped with cheese, veggies with some seasonings. This one of my family fav Sunday breakfast items as we are potato lovers. Making it in Instant Pot is so much easier, no need to adjust potatoes to cook evenly. Just add the potatoes in instant pot over a trivet with some water and pressure for 14 minutes. Yes, that’s the time it takes to cook a Baked Potatoes plus a little more for pressure to release.
