Instant Pot Black Beans
Report
The best way to make perfect Instant Pot black beans every time. Easy pressure cooker method that requires no soaking and no draining!
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 pound dried black beans about 2 cups, no need to soak
- 1 ½ teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 1 green bell pepper cored, seeded, and diced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 cloves garlic minced (about 1 tablespoon)
- 3 cups water
- Optional for serving: diced avocados jalapeno, red onion, cilantro, cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- Rinse and drain the beans and pick out any stones or bad, cracked-looking beans. Set aside.
- Set the Instant Pot to SAUTE and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the onion, bell pepper, and salt. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in the cumin, oregano, bay leaves, and garlic, and cook until the spices are very fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the water and beans and stir. Cover and seal the Instant Pot. Cook on HIGH pressure for 35 minutes. When the timer goes off, allow the steam to release naturally for 20 additional minutes. Remove the lid. Remove the bay leaves and discard them. Enjoy warm or let cool completely and store in individual containers.
Notes
- TO STORE: Refrigerate beans in an airtight storage container for up to 4 days.
- TO REHEAT: Rewarm beans in a pot on the stovetop or in the microwave.
- TO FREEZE: Freeze beans in an airtight freezer-safe storage container for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator or reheat directly from frozen.
