Instant Pot Creamed Corn is so creamy, delicious, and comforting. This easy to make creamed corn is just a little sweet, with a touch of spice to round it out. You just dump a bunch of things in an Instant Pot, mix it up, and cook.
So Easy, Even My Husband Can Make It!
My husband used to be afraid to use my Instant Pot until I had him try some really easy recipes. This was one of the first recipes. All he had to do was dump some things in, stir, and push buttons. Other than rice, it is one of his favorite things to make.

Instant Pot Creamed Corn Ingredients
You’ll need frozen corn, cubed cream cheese, cubed salted butter, whole milk, heavy cream, cayenne pepper, black pepper, granulated sugar or cane sugar, and kosher salt.
Add Corn to Instant Pot
To an Instant Pot, add 16 ounces of frozen corn.
You can also use: 4 Ears of Fresh Corn on the Cob or 1 Can Corn Kernels
Add Sugar & Spices
Add sugar, salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper to the frozen corn.
Add Butter and Cream Cheese
Top the frozen corn with cubes of butter and cream cheese. I like to use salted butter, but you can use unsalted if desired. You can also use lowfat cream cheese… but…
Stir it All Together, Add Milk, & Cook
Give everything a good mix to distribute the spices, cream cheese, and butter – then add cream & milk. Then cook at High Pressure for 10 minutes.
Release Pressure and Open
Release pressure carefully and stir. It will look a little weird and gross at first, but don’t worry, that’s just because it’s hot cheese. It will get better.
Stir Until the Cubes of Cheese Mix In
Stir until the cubes of cream cheese are nice and smooth. The creamed corn will thicken the longer it sits. This recipe makes about two cups of cooked corn, which will feed about 4 or 5 people as a side dish. To feed a larger group, you can double the recipe.
