Ingredients:
2 cups dried pinto beans
4 cups water
1 garlic clove (or 1 tablespoon garlic powder)
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon oil

Instructions:

  1. Spread out and sort through the beans. Pick out any shriveled or discolored beans, rocks or debris.
  2. Place the beans in a colander. Rinse the beans very well 3 times under cold water. Use your hands to rub the beans together to ensure they are properly cleaned.
  3. Place the rinsed beans in the Instant Pot. Add the water, garlic, kosher salt, and oil.
  4. Place the top on the pot and set the valve to sealing.
  5. Set the pressure to high and the timer for 60 minutes.
  6. When the time is up, manually vent out the pressure. While the pressure releases, fill up your sink with a few inches of cold water.
  7. When all the pressure has been released and the safety valve has lowered, open the pot and use pot holders to take out the silver insert. Gently place it in the cold water. This will help stop the cooking process so that the beans don’t overcook.

Enjoy 😉
