Directions for Baked Potato
The Instant Pot just makes this easy. Place the trivet in and add 1 cup of water and 1 teaspoon of salt.

We peel our potatoes because J and A don’t like the skins. Honestly, it makes the whole meal easier, unless you really like the skins.

Close the Instant Pot and pressure cook for 30 minutes. We’ve found that 30 minutes makes the potatoes soft, but not so soft that they disintegrate.

Put it on a plate, mash it down, and add your favorite toppings. It really couldn’t be simpler.

Until next time,
