Instant Pot Marinara Sauce [DF, GF, Vegan]

September 27, 2018 by 918 Plate Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Marinara Sauce makes a great sauce in a fraction of the simmer time, perfect for preserving all your summer harvest!

I threw all the ingredients into the pressure cooker and then I had pasta sauce in no time! I know my original pasta sauce recipe is pretty easy also, but it is a little bit more simple (this one includes sugar and wine!). This instant pot marinara sauce has a full flavor and is super delicious. I’ll show you a great way to use it in the next recipe.

What’s your favorite pasta shape? This is a versatile sauce and is great with nearly any shape. You get to fully control the texture of the sauce by heating it to evaporate more of the liquid after blending. It would also be great mixed with a little vodka and cream to make this vodka cream sauce!

Local Spotlight: All these blessed tomatoes that I finally got all ripe at the same time went into this gorgeous sauce, as well as my own garden basil. Onions and garlic came from the farmers market, but it’s almost time to plant garlic again and I’m excited! I regret not planting any last year.

I don’t really have a whole lot to say, but it’s delicious and you should eat it ASAP!

Keyword instant pot, pasta, pressure cooker, sauce
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 2 jars

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs. tomatoes
  • 1 C. diced onions
  • 6 cloves garlic
