Brazilian Black Beans ~ An Instant Pot Recipe

September 22, 2016 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve been experimenting with my Instant Pot electric pressure cooker. For some reason I bought several pounds of black beans from a co-op so Brazilian Black Beans seemed like a good thing to try. I made this Monday night and we loved it. It made enough for dinner, a couple of lunches (with rice) and I still had a couple of cups left which I’ve been eating for lunch sans rice.

Please excuse the terrible photo. I forgot to take one Monday night with the rice so this is what I had for lunch. That’s a dollop of sour cream on top.

    i have a Crock Pot Express 8 qt size…I assume the recipes would be quite similar on this as on an Instant Pot?

      I would think so but can’t say for certain. Beans are pretty forgiving, though. If you try it, please come back and let me know how it turned out. If you have to make any adjustments that would be helpful information in case someone else with the Crock Pot Express is reading this.
