If you're like us, your Instant Pot has transformed home cooking, but there are accessories that can make it even easier to churn out those easy weeknight meals in your favorite new appliance. They can help you make everything from steamed artichokes to cheesecakes right in your pressure cooker. More delicious meals are in your future with these 10 finds.
Instant Pot Sealing Rings ($9): You're supposed to replace the sealing ring on your Instant Pot every 12 to 18 months, so it doesn't hurt to keep a few on hand. They're essential for safely using pressure cookers, since the accessories are what keep things sealed up tight.
Ielek Silicone Muffin Cups ($11): You can use these liners to make cupcakes and muffins in your pressure cooker, as well as mini frittatas, poached eggs, and custards.
OXO Silicone Pressure Cooker Rack ($12): Place fatty meats like roasts on this silicone tray and the grease will drain away as it cooks. You're left with a tender, juicy cut of meat that you don't have to blot to get rid of the oil. Plus, you won't have to struggle to get it out of the pan since silicone is non-stick.
Instant Pot Silicone Starter Set ($15): This handy kit comes with mini silicone mits to wear when removing the inner pot from your pressure cooker, a heat-proof silicone trivet to use for serving, and a silicone suction lid you can use to save your meal for later — just put on the lid and pop the pot in the fridge.
OXO Silicone Pressure Cooker Egg Rack ($12): Protect your eggs from the hard metal bottom of your pressure cooker with this silicone egg tray, which holds nine eggs.
Fat Daddio's Anodized Aluminum Round Cheesecake Pan With Removable Bottom ($13): Make decadent, crack-free cheesecakes in your pressure cooker with a pan that slides right into the pot. Once your cheesecake has cooled, you can easily lift it out, thanks to the removable bottom.
OXO Silicone Pressure Cooker Sling ($15): Keep bakeware and other cooking implements off the bottom of your pressure cooker thanks to this handy silicone sling from OXO. The unique honeycomb design ensures that food cooks evenly and doesn't scorch.
DebbieDoo's 7" Inch Non-Stick Springform Bundt Pan ($17): A combo springform and bundt pan, this will take care of all of your pressure cooker dessert needs. It's also oven-safe if you want to do things the traditional way.
OXO Good Grips Silicone Steamer ($17): It's flexible enough to fit in different pots, holds various sized foods, and has handles that stay cool so you can remove it from the pot without burning your fingers.
Stack N' Cook Pressure Cooker Pans ($31): Turn your pressure cooker into a multi-tasker with a set of stackable pan inserts that allow you to make more than one dish at a time.
