Looking for easy Instant Pot vegan recipes? If so, then you’ve landed in the right place!

If you’re new to using your Instant Pot and looking for some tried-and-true vegan Instant Pot recipes to get started (like me!), then this post is for you. BUT, if you’re a seasoned Instant Pot user, these recipes are for you, too! We can never have too many delicious vegan recipes in our collections, right?

It takes a little getting used to cooking with the Instant Pot, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be a pro in no time and using it to make many of your meals (like me!).

Note that there are several different models of the Instant Pot, I own the the Duo 6-quart 9-in-1 (you can see it in this link, and that’s it in the picture above).

One of the first things I did after buying my Instant Pot was order a recipe book to go along with it (“Vegan Under Pressure” came highly recommended, so I went with that one!) and I also started searching online for Instant Pot Vegan recipes to try.

I also asked a few fellow food blogger friends for easy Instant Pot vegan recipes they would suggest to a newbie, and these are the recipes they recommended.

All of these recipes are simple enough for someone new to pressure cooking, they’re tried-and-true, and of course, they’re delicious! Before you make any of the recipes, make it easy on yourself…be sure to carefully read all the instructions and to follow them as they are written.

Apple Spice Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats

Start your day with hearty, filling, and delicious Apple Spice Instant Pot Steel Cut Oats. When you cook steel cut oats in your Instant Pot, there’s no more standing over your stove to constantly stir your oats. These easy-to-make oats cook up perfectly every time.

 

Instant Pot Soy Yogurt

One of the things that intrigued me about the Instant Pot is that it has the ability to make yogurt! Some models don’t have this function, so research before committing (the one I link to above does have the yogurt function). If you’re wondering how to make vegan yogurt in the Instant Pot, then this super easy recipe for Instant Pot Soy Yogurt from Glue & Glitter is one to try. If soy yogurt is not for you then try this Instant Pot Coconut Cashew Yogurt.

It’s a little chilly these days, so soup is on the menu for many of us. This Vegan Wild Rice Soup from Veggies Save the Day is a must-try (even if it’s not a chilly day!) And check out this recipe for Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes, also from Veggies Save the Day.
