How to Make Baked Beans I Pressure Cooker

  1. Rinse 1 pound of dried beans and soak them in water overnight. Drain thoroughly before adding them to your pressure cooker.
  2. Add 1 pound of diced pork (or substitute with 1 cup cooked bacon or ham), 1 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup molasses (fancy molasses recommended), 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon mustard, and 1/2 cup chopped onion to the pressure cooker with the beans. Add enough water to cover the beans by about 2 inches.
  3. Secure the lid and cook on high pressure for 40 minutes. Allow for a natural pressure release for at least 15 minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
  4. Carefully open the lid and stir. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve warm and enjoy!
