I have made these brownies in my 6qt Instant Pot that doesn’t have a cake button. So yes you can very well bake in your pressure cooker without having a Cake Button option. We enjoy eating brownies warming it a bit in the microwave with a scoop of ice cream and more chocolate sauce. Heaven Heaven Heaven!!!
I am so happy with the response I got for my Instant Pot chocolate cake. Many of you have tried it with success and gave me a great feedback ! If you haven’t read that post I would recommend you quickly hover over this link and read about my trials and even get the recipe on the most delicious cake in Instant Pot . If you have been following me you already know how much I love baking. My family loves to indulge in sweet treats especially baked goodies like cakes, brownies, cookies. When I moved to United States 10 years back I had no idea that getting egg free desserts would be so difficult. Here most of the restaurants or the bakeries do not have vegan or eggless options. Back in India every bakery had a section with wide variety of egg free as well as dairy free cakes. So when cravings strike I gotta do something right! And this is the main reason I started baking at home. And I am glad I did because it’s so therapeutic and absolutely a breeze when you have the right set of recipes. Recipes that actually work . After a lot of trials and testings I decided to share them with you so that you do not have to go through the hassle of experimenting or get disappointed by failure. Baking in a pressure cooker isn’t a new thing for me. In-fact back in India many households do not own an oven. They bake in a traditional stove top pressure cooker. back in the days my aunt used to make delicious cakes for us in a pressure cooker itself. I have baked cakes and brownies in a stove top pressure cooker . But now that I have an Instant Pot I started baking in it since last year. It’s very easy and yields delicious results.
Coming back to the recipe for these vegan chocolate walnut brownies in Instant Pot. They are fudgy dense and are rich in chocolate flavor. The secret to deepen the chocolate flavor is to add coffee. The only downside of making brownies in the instant Pot is that it doesn’t develop a flaky crust. If you are a sucker of crusty brownies then feel free to bake them in your oven. I have used apple sauce in this recipe as it makes these brownies moist . Feel free to sub it with non dairy yogurt or flaxseed meal.
