Let’s talk about boiled peanuts a true 𝒮𝑜𝓊𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝓃 delicacy! I used to cook boiled peanuts all day in my crockpot, but you can cut your cooking time down substantially in a pressure cooker. My 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐨𝐭 𝐁𝐨𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐬 recipe is delicious, the peanuts come out tender, and it is so easy to make!  Boiled peanuts are the perfect summertime snack. If you have never had the pleasure of eating a boiled peanut, you need to try this recipe. It’s kid-friendly and southern mom approved!  Now that I know how fast and easy it is to make my life is just about complete.

Ingredients:
2 pounds raw peanuts
1/3 cup salt 
Water to cover

Instructions: 
  1. Place peanuts in Instant Pot.
  2. Add water to cover the peanuts.
  3. Place the Instant Pot steamer rack on top of the peanuts and gently push the peanuts down. You can keep this rack in the Instant Pot during cooking to help weigh them down.
  4. Place lid on Instant Pot and turn the valve to sealing position.
  5. Set to Manual Pressure for 90 minutes.
  6. When the timer goes off let it natural release for 30 minutes. Then open the valve to release any remaining pressure and remove the lid.

Side Notes: 
  • I keep the peanuts in the pressure cooker for another hour and stir every 30 minutes.
  • Bag them in quart bags and place them in your freezer! 

    WElcome!
