Instant Pot Corn on the Cob [Pressure Cooker]

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob a flavor bomb! Best corn for 4th of July. The longer it sits in the buttery, milky, yummy goodness, the better!

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob

Corn on the cob cannot be simpler than cooking it in a Instant Pot, Mealthy MultiPot or Pressure Cooker  and it only takes a few minutes.

 No longer do you have to stand over a stove, waiting for water to boil.

Just pop these babies into your Pressure Cooker and in a few minutes, you have nice and hot buttery Corn on the Cob.

For an incredible treat to your mouth, you have got to try my Mexican Corn on the Cob Street Food (Elote) recipe which is made on the charcoal grill. Additionally, if you want to use your air fryer, oven or Mealthy Crisplid (this accessory turns your Instant Pot into an air fryer!!!!!), try this Elote, Corn on the Cob recipe instead.

After one bite of my Pressure Cooker Corn on the cob, you will never go back to plain corn on the cob again!

Cast of Ingredients for Instant Pot Corn on the Cob

• Corn
• Butter
• Milk
• Sugar
• Salt

The corn will bathe in the flavored liquid and the longer you let it sit in all the deliciousness, the better!

Add all ingredients to your Pressure Cooker

Add all the ingredients to your Instant Pot, Mealthy MultiPot or Pressure Cooker cooking pot.

If you want to make more corn, just double or triple the recipe. It’s not a problem at all.

Add in the Corn

Instant Pot Corn on the Cob made in this delicious liquid is a thing of beauty. 

For larger batches of corn, just add more of the liquid ingredients.

Let the corn stay in the pot on Keep Warm and turn and rotate the ears, so that all ears are nicely bathed!

Will Milk Curdle?

• Possibly.
• Try using whole milk or heavy cream to avoid curdling.

If you want to let the corn hang out in the liquid, it’s not a problem. More flavor infusion!!!!!

Pressure Cooker Corn on the Cob

Of course, you can always just cook plain corn on the cob with just water.

But, that would be boring.

I’ll still tell ya how to do it on the recipe card below.

Don’t forget, you can use fresh or frozen corn!

Ingredients

Fancy Method

• 4 Ears Corn on the Cob fresh or frozen
• 1/2 cup Water
• 1 cup Heavy Cream or Half & Half, Milk
• 1 Tablespoon White Sugar
• 1/4 cup Butter
• 1 teaspoon Sea Salt

Plain Jane Corn on the Cob

• 4 Ears Corn on the Cob (or more)
• 1 cup Water

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

In Pot for Butter Flavor

• Add corn, water, cream or milk, sugar, salt and butter to Pressure Cooker cooking pot.
• Lock on lid and close Pressure Valve.  Cook on High Pressure for 1 minute.
• When beep sounds, wait at least 10 minutes and then release the rest of the pressure. 
• Keep Instant Pot on "Keep Warm," and let the corn sit in the glorious liquid until ready to serve. The longer the corn sits in the warm liquid, the more flavor is infused into the corn

On Rack

• Add one cup of water to the Pressure Cooker cooking pot and place a trivet on top.  Lay corn on trivet.
• Lock on lid and close Pressure Valve.  Cook on Steam (High Pressure) for 1 minute. If frozen, cook for 2 minutes. When beep sounds, wait 5 minutes and then release the rest of the pressure.

Notes

If you want to cook the corn with the husks still on, add a couple more minutes..

The longer the corn sits in the pot with the buttery goodness, the better it becomes. If you can make this early in the day and let it sit until dinner, you will have the best corn ever!
