To begin making Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole I had to prepare the ingredients.

I cut up some red pepper, yellow pepper, spinach, green onion and turkey sausage.  I also measured out some bacon crumble and grated some cheese.

This is the brand of gluten free sausage I used in this recipe.

The turkey sausage.

Once the ingredients that needed prepping were ready, I cracked 12 large eggs into a mixing bowl.

I added in some salsa of choice, plus a bit of salt and pepper.

After whisking the eggs well, I added in all the ingredients that I had prepped, holding back 1/2 of the grated cheese for later.

I whisked everthing until the ingredients were well combined with the beaten eggs.

Then I greased an Instant Pot 7″ round cake pan.

Next I carefully poured all of the egg mixture into the prepared cake pan.

Then I covered the cake pan well with tinfoil to seal it. I poured water into the Instant Pot, set the cake pan on the trivet and carefully lowered it into the Pot.

Then I placed the lid on the Instant Pot, turned the steam release handle to the sealing position and set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 35 minutes.

Once the Instant Pot was done cooking, I allowed it to do a Natural Release for 10 minutes before turning the steam release handle to the venting positon.

After removing the pan from the Pot and taking off the tinfoil I covered the top with more of my salsa of choice.

Then I sprinkled the remaining grated cheddar cheese blend on top of the salsa.

To finish the casserole I put it under the broiler for about 5 minutes until the cheese was melted and starting to bubble.

After removing the Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole from the oven cut and serve immediately.

Add hash browns or a fruit salad and enjoy every flavourful bite of this easy pressure cooker recipe.
