Easy Instant Pot Brownies Recipe (Delicious & Healthy)

Instant Pot Brownies Recipe

With the growing popularity of the Instant Pot®, I have been using mine for more than just quick and easy dinners. In fact, I have been known to make my dinner, give the Instant Pot a quick wipe down, and toss in dessert while we are sitting down to dinner.

You can make everything from cheesecake to coffee cake to caramel popcorn, and that is only the beginning. I decided to start with something simple and go with brownies.

If you have been reading my recipes for any length of time, you know I can’t just make regular ole brownies. I have to kick up the protein of these instant pot brownies with some BioTrust protein blend, so this time I used Chocolate Ice Cream Platinum1. And if that wasn’t enough, I decided to do a little switcharoo to sneak some extra fiber into my kids diet with some black beans. Bahahaha… (That’s my Evil mom laugh.)
