Ingredients

  • 1 cup (200g) sugar
  • 3/4 cup (177 ml) heavy cream
  • 4 cups (1 L) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

How To Make Instant Pot Eggnog

  • Whisk the eggs, sugar, heavy cream, and milk until incorporated.
  • Pour into Instant Pot and set to sauté mode.
  • Whisk frequently until the custard begins to simmer and has thickened.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve.

How To Make Instant Pot Eggnog Pot-in-Pot Method

  • Pour 5-6 cups of water into your Instant Pot and place the trivet in the water.
  • Set to sauté and bring the water to a boil. Place a pan or a glass bowl on top of the trivet in your Instant Pot and pour in your eggnog mixture.
  • Whisk the mixture until the temperature reaches 150F / 65C.
  • Switch the Instant Pot to the warm setting, and continue to whisk until it reaches 160F / 71C.
  • Stir in the flavorings and then refrigerate until you are ready to serve.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs. This will help the custard to come together easier.
  • Be sure to make the eggnog ahead of time. It needs at least three hours to cool.
  • Use an instant-read digital thermometer to make sure the eggnog reaches 160F / 71C.
