    How To Make Instant Pot Vanilla Cake
  • If your Instant Pot came with a handled trivet: (when you first purchased it)  put it on the bottom of a 6-quart or  8-quart Instant Pot. Make sure that the handles are up so that you can lift the cake out later.
    If your Instant Pot did not come with a trivet or you can't find it. Then just use a small (OVEN, it has to be able to withstand heat)  bowl turned upside down and placed in the center.
  • Place your cover on the Instant Pot. Make sure that the vent is on sealed 
  • Cook on high pressure (manual) for 35 minutes. When the cooking time is complete, let the pressure naturally release.
  • Remove the cake carefully, making sure not to burn yourself, let the cake cool.
  • Remove the cake from the pan and frost it (if you would like to)
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
