Notes
When I am talking about 75% cooked Instant Pot Baked Potatoes I am talking about reducing the cooking time from 30 minutes down to 22.5 minutes. That way they are well on their way to being cooked but are not a soggy mess. Plus, for portion sizes aim for 1 large or 2 medium baked potatoes per person.
The cheese overcooks if cooked in the Instant Pot but melts naturally if added afterwards. I use the back of my grater to crush the potatoes. A masher is not a good idea as the potato sticks to it and it doesn’t do the job as good. You can always use the back of a big serving spoon instead.
