Instant Pot may be a cook’s greatest friend when it comes to following a ketogenic diet. Popular cooking equipment has become a staple in every kitchen. It makes the meat super tender, cooks creamy soups and stews in just minutes.

The best part? Fewer dishes to clean since you can also fry some of the ingredients using the function “Saute”.

If you’re excited about your brand new Pressure Cooker or just looking for the best Instant Pot keto recipes, then, in less than 30 minutes, you can prepare delectable, low-carb, and keto meals.

To help you get started on your ketogenic diet, we’ve compiled a list of some of the easiest keto diet Instant Pot recipes that even the most inexperienced cook can make in their kitchen. Please take a look at them here!

Reason to Use an Instant Pot

Changing your cooking method might not only save you money and provide you with healthier meals, but it could also help the environment.

There are so many reasons to enjoy the Instant Pot (my favorite!), from fast to slow-cooked meals to baking cakes and sweets. Here are the main reasons for its popularity — and why you should consider purchasing one as well.

  • Instant pots use less energy – They may cook food up to 70% quicker than a traditional oven because of heat and steam.
  • No need to defrost – There’s no need to thaw your food in the microwave before cooking, you can cook frozen meat or other ingredients directly.
  • You can cook without oil – An Instant Pot cooks under high heat and pressure, similar to steaming, and does not require any additional fats or oils.

To save you even more time in the kitchen, check our Keto Air Fryer Recipes Guide, that features over 50 easy low carb recipes.

What Are the Features of an Instant Pot?

Depending on the brand and model, an Instant Pot comes with plenty of predefined programs, such as:

  • Soup/Broth
  • Meat/Stews
  • Bean/Chili
  • Rice/Grain
  • Yogurt
  • Bake
  • Poultry
  • Sterilise
  • Porridge
  • Keep Warm
