Ingredients

4 russet potatoes washed and dried
1 cup water

Instructions

Wash potatoes with a brush, then poke them all over with a fork, then place on the trivet in the Instant Pot.
Add 1 cup water (2 cups for the 8-quart), put on the lid and turn the valve to the sealing position.
Measure the circumference of the fattest potato and set the Instant Pot to:
7" circumference = 12 mins HP
7.5" circumference = 13 mins HP
8" circumference = 14 mins HP
8.5" circumference = 15 mins HP
9" circumference = 16 mins HP
Wait for full natural pressure release. Then open the pot and serve your baked potato topped with your favorite toppings.
