Instant Pot Baked Potatoes 1 28 2020

I love baked potatoes.  My diabetes doesn't, but I love them.  They are yummy and filling and taste amazing.  However, they take forever to make in the oven.  The microwave can help you out but if you forget to poke them, they can explode in there.  Not a fun cleaning day.

Since I got my pressure cooker for Christmas, I have been looking for more things to cook in it and to my surprise, baked potatoes are one. 

Make sure you scrub them potatoes well, no one wants to taste dirt in their potato.  Follow your pressure cookers directions on how much liquid is needed for your particular machine.  Mine has a minimum of 1 cup of liquid.  In a 6 quart cooker, you can do 8 or 9 extra large potatoes, you more smaller ones. 

I recommend trying to cook ones that are all about the same size since difference in sizes could mean some are well done while others are still hard in the center.  When I am making medium size potatoes, I cook them on high pressure for 13 minutes.  Large potatoes for 17 minutes, and extra large potatoes for 20 minutes.

See ya soon!
