I’ve always wanted to use the Instant Pot to sprout beans. There’s no reason why the yogurt setting shouldn’t work beautifully for it. After all, it’s creating a warm, humid environment, and that’s all that the beans need to sprout. So after some trial and error I was able to come up with this great Instant Pot Sprouted Beans recipe!
Instant Pot Sprouted Beans
I tried these Instant Pot Sprouted Beans three times and failed twice. I have finally figured it out, and now I can make sprouted beans in less than a day. I discovered that the key to successful sprouting is a good, long soak in very hot water. Your beans have to drink up a lot of water and swell before they’ll sprout properly in the Instant Pot. If they’re just a little soaked, they will sprout–but it will take twice as long, and really the Instant Pot doesn’t help you much then.
Although I used Moth beans and I’m providing a link here , this is about twice what you’d pay at an Indian grocery store. Note that you can use this method with any type of beans you have, and you can see here how I did it without an Instant Pot. But having the Yogurt functions speeds up the whole process considerably.
Once they’re sprouted, here are a couple of ways to make these:
- Matki chi Ussal
- Sprouted Lentils Ussal

Instant Pot Bean Sprouts
Ingredients
- ▢ 1 cup ( 236.59 g ) moth beans , or lentils
- ▢ 2 cups ( 500 g ) Water
Instructions
- Place 1 cup of beans or lentils in a bowl.
- Cover them with 2 cups of boiling water or very hot water from your tap.
- Allow them to rest for 3-4 hours until almost all the water has been absorbed.
- Place a silicone steamer basket, a colander, or wire mesh basket in the inner liner of your instant pot
- Pour the beans and any leftover water into the steamer basket or colander. The water will drip to the bottom and contribute to a humid, moist environment.

Instant Pot PIP beans and rice make getting dinner on the table really easy, and all done in one step. Here’s how you get blackeyed
I love using my Instant Pot to make multiple dishes at the same time. Yesterday, we were stupid busy with the last of the deliverables (I hope) for the Cookbook and I only had time and energy to make one thing. So I made the Black-Eyed Peas I’ve before, but this time I used frozen collard greens rather than spinach. I also cooked a pot of rice on top of it at the same time. This allows me to get rice and beans done in about 10-15 minutes, with not much work.
Here’s how to make Instant Pot PIP Beans and Rice:
- Put all the ingredients for the Blackeyed peas below in the inner liner, with a extra 1/2 cup of water.
- Place a steamer rack/trivet on top of it.
- Put 1/2 cup of rice with 3/4 cup of water in a pot and cover it with a silicone lid,
- Cook for 12 minutes HP, with full natural release.
Less than 30 minutes from when you started, you have rice and beans. How cool is that?
