To start making Instant Pot Hamburger Stew with Biscuits I chopped up all the vegetables that I wanted to add.  I cut them into small pieces to ensure that they cooked through.

I sliced baby carrots, potatoes, half an onion and half a green pepper.

The cut vegetables

Once my vegetables were ready I prepared my biscuit dough.  I used Gluten Free Bisquick and followed the directions on the package.

Once the dough was ready I sprayed a silicone egg mold with cooking spray.  Here is a picture of the one I used that goes in the Instant Pot.

The silicone mold

I then scooped the biscuit dough into the mold.

Preparing the biscuits.

 I sprayed some tinfoil with cooking spray and carefully sealed the biscuits in the mold to keep the moisture out.   Set the biscuits aside until the rest of the ingredients are in the pot.

Covering the biscuits.

Now time to turn the Instant Pot on.  I added oil and set the Pot to the sauté normal function.  I added the ground beef and let it cook, breaking it apart, until it was about half done.

Browning the beef.

While the meat was cooking I prepared my liquids.  This included beef broth, diced tomatoes, tomato soup and tomato paste.

The liquids.

While the Pot was still set to saute I added the beef broth and deglazed the pot.

Adding the beef broth and deglazing the pot.

When deglazing was complete I hit the cancel button and added all the chopped vegetables and a half cup of frozen corn.

Adding the vegetables.

I poured in the can of diced tomatoes, 2 cups of tomato soup and spooned the tomato paste gently onto the top.

Adding the liquids.

I used tinfoil folded in half to create a barrier for the biscuits.  I used enough tinfoil so that it would come up along the side of the pot and create a sling for easy removal of the biscuits.

The tinfoil sling.

I carefully lowered the egg mold containing the biscuit dough into the Instant Pot.

Placing the biscuits in 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 5 minutes.

This took longer than other recipes I have tried to come to pressure but was well worth the wait.

When the Instant Pot was done cooking, I turned the steam release handle to the venting position to finish with a Quick Release.

Using oven mitts, to protect my hands from the hot steam, I carefully used the tinfoil sling to transfer the biscuits to a plate.  This may be a little messy.

I turned the Instant Pot back on to sauté.  I measured out a tablespoon of corn starch and mixed it with a few drops of water.  Only enough to make it easy to pour into the hamburger stew.

I stirred until it bubbled and then I turned off the Instant Pot.

Stirring in the corn starch.

I removed the tinfoil cover from the biscuits.  Some of the edges were a bit red from the stew and they had expanded to touch each other.  

Uncovering the biscuits.

I used a knife to separate them into individual biscuits and then inverted them onto a plate.

Inverting the biscuits.

This Instant Pot Hamburger Stew with Biscuits made together in the Instant Pot was a hit in our home.  So serve and enjoy!
