Remember that the cooking time of the corn on the cobb will depend on the freshness of the corn. If you have farm-fresh corn on the cobb it will cook perfectly within 4-5 minutes in the instant pot. If you have Corn on the Cobb which is a couple of days old, then you need to cook it longer as it might have dried.
Hint: Do not forget to brush the Corn on the Cobb with Butter.
A healthy Corn on the Cobb Recipe
We love to munch on fresh Corn on the Cobb, but from time to time, just for a change of taste, I like to spice things up. Adding Cheddar Cheese and Ranch dressing over the Corn feels soooo good. It gives a cheesy and creamy taste to the sweet corn and that's just so amazing. You can also add some crispy fried Bacon on top.
Cooking Variations
- You can make air fryer corn on the cob. Just grease the corn and place in the air fryer basket @400F for 15-16 minutes.
- You can cook these in the oven. Place greased Corn on the Cob in a sheet pan and bake @400F for 10 minutes. After 10-min, turn and bake for another 10-minutes.
