Step 1

Prepare your potatoes- Start by scrubbing your potatoes, then pricking them all over with a fork. Next, measure the width of your potatoes. Depending on the thickness of your potatoes, you will cook for different amounts of time.small (2 inches or less)- 15 minutes with a 10 minute natural pressure releasemedium (2-3 inches)- 25 minutes with a 10 minute natural pressure releaselarge (3 inches +)- 35 minutes with a 10 minute natural pressure release

Step 2

Prepare the Instant Pot- add 1 cup of water to the stainless steel insert of your Instant Pot. Place the trivet on top, and arrange potatoes on trivet.

Step 3

Cook- Place the lid on the Instant Pot, set the steam release handle to the 'sealing' position. Cook for on high pressure for 15 minutes. When the Instant Pot completes its cooking cycle, allow it to sit for 10 minutes (even if the pin drops).

Step 4

Optional- Crisp Skin Up- If you have an Instant Pot air fryer lid, consider crisping up the skin! Unplug the Instant Pot and remove the lid. Spritz the potatoes with spray oil, and season with salt. Place the air fryer lid onto the Instant Pot, and set the timer for 10 minutes at 400°F.

Step 5

Serve- Cut potatoes open and fluff up with a fork. Add butter, sour cream, salt and pepper, and your favorite toppings.
