Cajun Boiled Peanuts (Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker)

After buying many many cans of boiled peanuts and “doctoring” them up, I decided to give it a shot from scratch. And we have a winner! It’s does take a full day or an overnight but they are definitely worth it. Give it a shot!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Place all ingredients into an Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker and cook on High for 1 hr. and let pressure reduce naturally. Keep on “keep warm” for 8 hrs.
- 2
After 8 hrs, open and check the peanuts for your desired consistency. I don’t like them too crunchy but also not mushy. I cooked them on high another 30 minutes and again let the pressure reduce naturally. Presto!

Found recipes on YouTube and made some changes... I will never buy canned peanuts again lol. Wow these turned out amazing 😉 and so easy and way cheaper to just make them.... use lots of salt if you like salty peanuts lol and lots of seasoning. I used two lbs of peanuts and half the bottle of that seasoning and lots of salt, for my heat add some hot sauce, and cut jalapeños to them ... 🌈NinjaMommaKitchen🌈 -

A very good friend of mine back home taught me how to make these. It might seem like a lot of spice but it has to simmer for 6 hours and penetrate the peanut shell 😋 #peanuts #cajun #boiled ⚡Welderwoman⚡ -

I grew up and still eat boiled peanuts! Don't eat the shells unless the are very tender. These were such a treat growing up. The whole family sharing about 2-3 quarts on a trip to the beach. So many great memories, truly a great comfort food! I hope you enjoy them when you try them! skunkmonkey101 -

Adapted a recipe that normally takes 8 hours and reduced it to about two in the Instant Pot. I grew up eating this meal as a staple. I learned how two previous generations fixed it and tweaked it a bit to make it mine. It tastes just like my childhood! stephysly -

I tried boiled peanuts for the first time about 15 years ago. I was living in Spartanburg, S.C. and the woman I was dating at the time talked me into trying them. I got hooked and have been making my own ever since. Over the years I have tweaked my recipe to what it is today. King-Crimson -
