Notes

  • Corn on the cob can be large. If you want to use full ears of corn, use a larger Instant Pot such as a 6 quart.
  • If you have a smaller Instant Pot, slice the corn into smaller pieces before cooking. The cooking process remains the same.
  • Use a steamer basket or the insert attached to the Instant Pot - you want to make sure the corn does not touch the bottom of the pot.
