    Instant Pot Baked Camembert

    Instant Pot Baked Camembert and no risk of it burning if you forget you have it in the oven!

    I absolutely adore Baked Camembert cheese and all its calories but I begrudge having to preheat the oven for it (and mainly having to wait for it to preheat), in comes the Instant Pot’s pressure cooking function.

    If you’re a member of my Pressure Cooking UK with Feisty Tapas, you’ll have noticed that my lunches are usually a last-minute from-the-freezer affair so this is a real treat.

    And, yes, of course, “you” can eat it all on your own or, you know, you could share with friends with a nice bottle of wine or bubbly…

    Want to use a Camembert Baker instead of parchment paper?

    If you want to add some flavour before “baking” your camembert in your Instant Pot, use a Camembert Baker instead of the parchment paper.

    Amazon has a good selection of camembert bakers here. I bought mine from TKMaxx.

    Timing if using a Camembert Baker: you will need to add cooking time if you use a Camembert Baker due to the fact that they are thick and heat will take longer to get through than it does with the parchment paper, so I do 12 minutes on Manual/Pressure Cook and then wait 12 minutes to get it out.

    What flavours could you add if using a Camembert Baker? I personally like cutting a cross and adding garlic, white wine and rosemary.

    Ready for the recipe?

    Instant Pot “Baked Camembert”

    Ingredients

    – 1 camembert, not all of them work great, Le Rustique certainly does though. Aldi’s does too.

    – 250 ml cold water

    Equipment

    – Parchment Paper

    – Instant Pot

    – Trivet

    Method

    1.

    Wrap a camembert cheese in parchment paper or place in a Camembert Baker. Place 250 ml water in the inner pot, put the trivet in place with the camembert parcel on top.

    2.

    Press Manual/Pressure Cook, use the – and + buttons to programme 10 minutes, wait 10 minutes after it finishes cooking (there was no steam left to release). 12 minutes with 12 minutes NPR if using a Camembert baker as the heat will need to get through. If using a baker feel free to add flavours (see note below).

    3.

    Unwrap. Wipe any extra moisture with kitchen paper and transfer to a plate.

    4.

    Cut a cross on it for access and dip your favourite bread (how much am I wishing right now I’d had better bread at home!).

      This worked really well. Didn’t have a camembert baker but used a pot covered in foil. Medium heat for 12 mins with 12 mins rest.
