Ingredients

For the Pressure Cooker (preferably use a tall trivet/rack with 2 1/2" to 3" legs)

  • 2 ½ cups Water

Corn Pudding

  • 1 (8 1/2) oz Box of Corn Bread Mix
  • 1 cup Southwest Vegetable Blend (frozen-thawed or canned-drained) (corn, black beans, red pepper, onion, etc)
  • ½ (4 oz) can Green Chiles (drained)
  • ½ cup Monterey Jack Cheese (Shredded)
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • ½ tsp Kosher Salt (or 1/4 tsp table salt)
  • ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
  • ¼ tsp Onion Powder
  • cup Sour Cream
  • 2 Eggs (beaten)
  • cup Milk
  • 1 tsp Mexican Oregano (or 1/2 tsp regular oregano) dried
  • A few dashes Hot Sauce

Garnish with Any of These

  • Sour Cream
  • Salsa
  • Green Onion
  • Hot Sauce

Instructions

  • Spray a 1 to 1 1/2 quart dish with cooking spray (affiliates: I use a 7" stackable stainless pan with a 7" parchment round on the bottom for easier removal).
  • Pour water into the inner liner of the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker. Place a (affiliate) tall trivet/rack in also.
  • Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
  • Pour into prepared pan and cover tightly with foil.
  • Place pan on rack in pot, using a sling.
  • Put the lid on the pot and lock it into place. Close the steam release knob (Sealing position).
  • Press the Pressure Cook (or Manual) button, and then the + or - button to choose 50 minutes.
  • When the cooking cycle has ended, let the pot sit and naturally release the pressure for 5 minutes. Then open the steam release valve by turning the knob to the Venting position.
  • When the pin in the lid has dropped down, open the lid and carefully remove the corn pudding to a cooling rack.
  • Let the pudding cool with the foil in place until ready to serve.
  • To serve, flip the corn pudding onto a plate and gently shake the pan, if necessary, to release it. Remove the parchment round, if using, before serving.
  • Garnish with sour cream, green onion, salsa, hot sauce, or eat as is.
