Instant Pot Corn on the Cob

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob is an easy way to cook perfectly crisp tender fresh corn. It cooks in just 2 minutes after your Instant Pot comes to pressure. Serve it topped with some butter and salt for a perfect side dish.

Picking a Good Ear of Corn

I am sure there are a lot of ways to ensure you have ripe and juicy corn on the cob. My favorite way is to slightly peel back the husk and silk from the ear.

If the corn kernels are plump and yellow/white ALL the way to the TOP then you have a good ear. If there is just husk with no corn, try again!

How to Cook Corn on the Cob in the Instant Pot

Shuck the corn on the cob by peeling back the husk and silk. Give it a rinse under cool water. If there is still a stem end trim that off.

Place the metal trivet in the pot, pour 1 cup water into the bottom. Set the corn upright, lay it down, or if you have large ears of corn you can cut them in half before adding them to the pot.

Place the lid on the pot and set it to cook on high pressure for 2 minutes.

Do a quick release.

With pressure time and release time the total process is around 13 minutes.

Serve your corn with butter and salt!
