Ingredients

  • 16 oz package of bacon

Instructions
 

  • Cut the bacon strips in half, if desired, then place them in a single layer in the bottom of the inner pot of the Instant Pot.
  • Press the SAUTE button. Allow the heating pot to fry one side of the bacon with the lid off for 3-5 minutes, until golden. Flip each piece of bacon and continue cooking for 3-4 more minutes until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Remove the bacon from the pot and place the strips on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining bacon, draining excess fat from the pot between batches as needed.

Notes

How to reheat bacon:

1. Place bacon on a microwave-safe plate.
2. Cover with a paper towel and heat for 10 seconds. Repeat until it's hot.
