Instant Pot Brownies
Fudgy, chocolate Brownies in the Instant Pot. You'll love this easy recipe for moist and chewy chocolate brownies!
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter unsalted
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg large
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium high heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add in chocolate chips and sugar.
- Stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Add in eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Add vanilla.
- Finally, add in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Using big strokes, stir JUST until combined. Do NOT over mix.
- Spray a 7x3-inch push pan (or cheesecake pan) with baking spray. Pour batter into pan.
- Add 1 1/2 cup water to the Instant Pot. Place brownie pan on a trivet and lower into the instant pot.
- Secure the lid and make sure the pressure valve on top is set to sealing.
- Select "HIGH PRESSURE" for a cook time of 45 minutes. When cook time ends, allow to naturally release for 10 minutes.
- Lift trivet out of the Instant Pot and cool brownies. OR enjoy warm with a scoop of ice cream!
Notes
- I use this Fat Daddio 7×3-inch push pan. It also works great for making instant pot cheesecakes in the 6qt! Be sure to check out my other favorite IP accessories!
- Do no over mix the batter. This will result in a horrible texture!
- To remove brownies from pan, allow to cool first. Then place push pan onto a mug (or canned good). Holding the sides of the push pan, push down as the brownies come UP. Grab the plate of brownies and enjoy.
- For best results, use GOOD quality chocolate. I prefer using Ghirardelli semi sweet chocolate chips AND Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa powder. Both have great results in delicious flavor.
