With brands like Instant Pot, Mealthy, and Ninja in the pressure cooker game, there are so many great options available. There are also so many accessories you can buy to pair up with your pressure cooker. But which ones do you really need? Read below to find out which ones I think are the must haves to make the most out of your pressure cooking experience!
CURRENT SALES
Don't miss out on getting these great Instant Pot accessories while they're on sale.
I love my Quick & Carry bag! It is so sturdy and has so much room for everything I need when taking the Instant Pot out of the house. They have one for both the 6-quart and 8-quart Instant Pot.
Well, the first, and most important item you will need is an electric pressure cooker. So, if you don't already have one, now is the time to get one. And, if you do already have one, then the only thing better than having one pressure cooker is having two (or more). Why? Because you can make your main dish and side dishes all at the same time.
There are many options available when it comes to electric pressure cookers, but these are my favorites.
The Instant Pot DUO is still my favorite of the Instant Pot models. I have several 8 quart DUOs and love them. In my opinion, there is no need to get a model higher than this.
I haven't had the pleasure of trying the Mealthy Multipot but I'm expecting it in the mail any day now. I have several friends that have it and love it. It comes highly recommended.
The Ninja Foodie is simply amazing. I do not own one yet, but it gets great reviews. It is a pressure cooker that also crisps like an air fryer. It doesn't get better than that! It's a higher price point than the other pressure cookers, but it's two appliances in one.
I have come up with a list of my absolute favorite electric pressure cooker accessories. Each of these accessories will work in most all 6 and 8-quart electric pressure cookers. They'll also help you take your pressure cooking skills to the next level making you a pressure cooking pro. So let’s get right to it and look at my favorite accessories for the electric pressure cooker!
The newest game changer in the pressure cooker accessory category is the Mealthy CrispLid. It turns your 6 or 8 qt pressure cooker into an air fryer. I have one and absolutely love it. You can cook your food in the pressure cooker and then put the lid on to crisp it. Definitely a winner.
I own this greek yogurt maker/strainer and love it. Making yogurt in a pressure cooker is so easy and this strainer helps strain the whey out so you have delicious, thick greek yogurt.
This mini bundt pan fits perfectly in your pressure cooker. I own several of them. Both the 3 cup and 6 cup fit in the pressure cookers. Do note, it's not dishwasher safe. You have to wash it by hand to keep it in great condition.
These mini mitts are by far my favorite accessory of all. They are easy to handle and I use them daily. I have the Instant Pot brand ones, and they have lasted forever. There are other brands available as well though.
These are perfect for pot in pot cooking. You can use them to separate foods you don't want touching while cooking. You can even use them to make two of my flans at the same time!
These silicone molds are perfect for making egg bites and small portion desserts like brownies and cakes. They are durable and dishwasher safe. Remember you can't use the plastic lid that comes with them in the pressure cooker.
I love this egg rack. It's stackable and perfect for making hard boiled eggs. The shorter rack can double as a regular trivet as well. These are perfect for when you're making deviled eggs since placing the eggs small tip down in it will keep the yolks centered.
I have one of these and love it for when I make creme brûlée in the pressure cooker. I've even used it to brown cheese on individual portions on pasta. It's a nifty little torch.
I love my Fat Daddio push pan! I use it to make lasagna in my pressure cooker. You can also make other casseroles in it as well as cheesecake. It's a very good quality pan.
If you're looking for a steamer basket that takes less space when stored this one is the best. I use mine for corn, other veggies, and even lobster tails! It's super handy.
This steamer basket rack is a great option if you don't want the bigger stackable steamer pans. It's divided to keep your food separate and comes with a trivet.
This cutie of a pan fits in all size pressure cookers, including the 3 qt mini. All of Debbiedoo's products are great quality. They're also packaged in such a cute way, they make perfect gifts! Check out all her products while you're there.
This is one of my favorite accessories. After many tests with different pans, this is by far the best option for making my flan recipe. It is sturdy, comes with a great cover, and the flan comes out perfect every time.
I own one of these bags and they are super sturdy. Perfect for when you need to travel with your pressure cooker. They have lots of storage space for accessories as well. Great product.
I recently bought this OXO sling and love it. It doubles as a trivet with sling and an egg rack for hard boiled eggs. Super good quality as is expected from OXO, and so nice not to have to make a sling out of foil! Easy to store as well!
That's it for my favorite must-have electric pressure cooker accessories. I’m sure there are a million other accessories out there that you can buy for your pressure cooker, but this list provides you with all the essentials. I hope you found this accessories list helpful and are able to get some cool accessories for your pressure cooker.

The two pack egg racks are not stackable. Do you have a suggested stackable set? Thank you for your great blog/recipes!
