InstantPot Pinto Beans

InstantPot Pinto Beans

It wasn’t too long ago that our family was still buying canned beans from the store. At the time it seemed more convenient and I liked the way that the beans held up when using them in recipes.

But after purchasing our InstantPot, I realize that it’s much easier, cheaper, and delicious to make your own pinto beans at home.
