Pressure Cooker Corny Cornbread

Cornbread is something I love to cook in my oven in a very hot Cast Iron Skillet. It is something I make often.

Judy Facine from the Instant Pot and Pressure Cooker Recipes group recently make this Pressure Cooker Corny Cornbread in her 8 Quart Pressure Cooker and has allowed me to use her recipe and post it up for you all.

For an even more creamy Cornbread, check out my Holiday Creamy Cornbread recipe, which can be done in the Pressure Cooker or the slow cooker.

 

Pressure Cooker Guide Making & Using Foil Sling

Pressure Cooker Guide Making & Using Foil Sling

Please see my article on Making and Using a Foil Sling in the Pressure Cooker.

It is cheap to make and you will find yourself using it all your Pot in Pot cooking. If you don’t want to make this Homemade Sling, you might prefer this Silicone Sling/ Vegetable Steamer which is a nice product.

Some people like to use  Grafiti Bands Cross Style as they make it so easy to get pans and bowls in and out of the Pressure Cooker. The Grafiti Bands will hold the paper towel in place nicely, as well

 

Perfect Cornbread in the Pressure Cooker

Perfect Cornbread in the Pressure Cooker

Judy used an 8 inch Bundt Cake Pan in her 8 Quart Pressure Cooker, but an 8 inch Push Pan would work just as well.

If you have a 6 Quart Pressure Cooker, then you would want to use either a 6″ Fat Daddio’s Push Pan or a 7 inch Cake Pan.

The Cornbread will rise a lot, so if you use a 6″ Cake Pan, you will want to make two batches.

 

Moist interior of the Cornbread

Moist interior of the Cornbread

Unlike a Cast Iron Cornbread, the center will be very moist and the exterior will not have a crunch, but is sure is delicious!

Thank you, Judy, for sharing this recipe with me and my readers. 🙂

    I just made this in my IP Ultra 60 and it came out very, very dense. Plus there was a lot of water on the top from the condensation. Any suggestions?

    Hello! Excuse my question, but the corn is in grain? I am doubtful, because I am Brazilian and in Brazil I have never seen a cake recipe with whole grains of corn, usually we grind the grains. I’m excited to test this recipe! Thank you very much and congratulations to the blog!

      Hi Vania. Yes, whole kernel corn. 🙂 BTW, one of our favorite brands of coffee is from Brazil. We can no longer get it since we left Florida, but love your espresso. Jill

    When you add sugar, it’s more of a muffin recipe, like jiffy; not the cornbread most Southerners grew up on.

      Hi Shelby~

      This recipe is not a Southern Cornbread recipe. It is sweet more cake like. I make a killer Southern Style Cornbread in my cast iron skillet. No sugar! Jill

    Hi. I have just started using your site, love it with my gift of an Instant Pot. I’m in Texas and would like to recommend Mexican vanilla to you. It is the best I’ve tried in 58 years of cooking. Very cheap and comes in a fifth like whiskey. Usually about ten bucks at import stores or Mexican bakery. Clear or brown, but MAKE SURE it says “PURA” or you get imitation. Clear is stronger. Hope you can find it. Carry on talented gal! Susan Cassidy, Kerrville, TX.

      Hi Susan~

      Thank you for the recommendation. I use vanilla extract that I get from Costa Rica, as it is my favorite. Being so close to Tijuana, I’ve been able to get Mexican vanilla as well.

    Can I use a 7″ Fat Daddio cheesecake pan or 7″ Fat Daddio ring mold pan for this?

    Can I use egg substitute and another flour for the corn bread. Granddaughter intolerance to wheat rice flour and cows milk.
    Thank You Linda

      Hi Linda~

      You can substitute some types of flour, however, rye, coconut and flours that contain no gluten won’t work.

      As far as an egg substitute, that is fine.
