Ingredients:

Before we dive into the baking process, let’s gather all the ingredients you’ll need to bake a cake in your Instant Pot Duo Crisp:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup buttermilk
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• Instant Pot Duo Crisp
• 7-inch cake pan that fits inside the Instant Pot Duo Crisp
• Trivet
• Aluminum foil

Instructions:

Now that you have all the ingredients ready, it’s time to start baking your cake in the Instant Pot Duo Crisp. Follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and mix until well combined.
2. Prepare the Instant Pot Duo Crisp: Place the trivet in the Instant Pot Duo Crisp and add 1 cup of water to the inner pot. This will create steam and prevent the cake from getting soggy.
3. Prepare the Cake Pan: Grease the cake pan with butter or cooking spray, and pour the cake batter into the pan. Cover the cake pan with aluminum foil to prevent water from dripping onto the cake during the cooking process.
4. Bake the Cake: Carefully place the cake pan on the trivet inside the Instant Pot Duo Crisp. Close the lid and set the vent to the sealing position. Select the “Pressure Cook” or “Manual” setting and set the cooking time to 30 minutes at high pressure.
5. Natural Release: Once the cooking time is complete, allow the Instant Pot Duo Crisp to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, carefully release any remaining pressure by turning the vent to the venting position.
6. Cool and Serve: Carefully remove the cake pan from the Instant Pot Duo Crisp and uncover the cake. Allow the cake to cool before slicing and serving. You can also add your favorite frosting or toppings to the cake if desired.

There you have it! In just a few simple steps, you can bake a delicious cake in your Instant Pot Duo Crisp.
