  • Add butter to a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Seal the vent. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 2 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release any pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions; there may not be any built-up pressure, and that's okay. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Quickly remove the pot insert from the base and swirl the butter inside until it is pale golden yellow with brown flecks collected in the bottom. Immediately pour brown butter into a container and allow to cool.
