Instant Pot Amish Casserole

Instant Pot Amish Casserole

This recipe is adapted from a recipe I found all All Recipes. The author stated it was, “A satisfyingly rich and hearty casserole from the Pennsylvania Dutch country.” I changed a few things up and, of course, made it in my Instant Pot. Yes, I know the Amish don’t use electricity 😆!

This dish only takes 2 minutes of pressure cooking time. Egg noodles cook quickly. And you might even have everything at your house to make this tonight! That’s the best when that happens.

My kids are suckers for anything I make with pasta so, of course, they loved this dish. The cream cheese and the marinara together were a winning combination. There was no chopping involved, which I appreciated. And the hardest part was browning the beef. Have I talked you into it yet?

Ingredients/Substitution Ideas

  • Ground beef–or ground turkey
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper
  • Beef broth–or chicken broth or Better than Bouillon
  • Egg noodles–or another type of pasta like penne. If you do use another type of pasta you’ll want to increase the cooking time to 4 minutes instead of 2 minutes.
  • Marinara sauce–I used Classico brand. Use your favorite pasta sauce.
  • Cream cheese–or a can cream of chicken soup
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Cheddar cheese–or another type of cheese like mozzarella or colby

Steps

  1. Brown beef: Turn Instant Pot to sauté setting. When display says HOT add in the beef and brown for about 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease. Stir in the salt and pepper.
  2. Deglaze pot: Pour in the broth and scrape the bottom of the pot so that nothing is sticking. Turn off Instant Pot.
  3. Layer in the ingredients: Add in the noodles. Pour the marinara sauce over the top of the noodles so they are all covered. Add the cream cheese (or cream of chicken) on top of the marinara. Don’t stir.
  4. Pressure cook: Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 2 minutes. When time is up let pot sit for 5 minutes and then move valve to venting. Remove the lid.
  5. Finish it off: Add in the Worcestershire and cheese. Stir well. Serve and enjoy!

Notes/Tips

  • Serve with a side of garlic bread and a green salad.
  • I used my 6 quart Instant Pot*. You can also make this in a 8 quart pot. Halve the recipe in the 3 quart pot.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container* in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Other recipes you can make with Worcestershire sauce are Instant Pot Best Ever Beef Tips and Instant Pot French Onion Salisbury Steaks.

    Hi, Karen! Another winner, for sure. 1 question: if I used whole-wheat noodles, what would the cook time be?
    Thanks, Cheryl

      I would increase cooking time by just one minute or not at all. They cook pretty much the same as white noodles.

    It is clear that in the last few years, my “make again” recipe list has more Karen recipes than any others. She has made me love my instant pot like crazy. O.K., I lied….I have THREE of them :).
    One of the biggest changes in my cooking life is that because I make so many of Karen’s recipes, the instant pot has become intuitive. I give myself the gift of “tinkering”, which is SO not me. Last night I did just that with Amish Casserole. It was not a big leap to use ground Turkey versus beef, but listen to what I did. I used extra wide egg noodles and decided to time for 3 minutes versus 2. I sauteed the turkey early in the day and added the broth, storing in the fridge all day. At dinner time, I set the cooker to do its magic, and engaged the “keep warm” button. But instead of letting the cooker naturally release for just a few minutes, I threw caution to the wind. An HOUR later I decided I wanted to eat….I went to my cooker, and removed the lid. The dish was still piping hot, and I simply stirred in the cheese with Worcestershire. Our meal was superb. I love how egg noodles turn out in this cooker. So tender, and yummy. Trust me, they did not suffer one bit from the long time before serving. I can’t thank Karen and her sharing such wonderful delights, enough.

    The sauce was incredible. This could be a very versatile recipe. Didn’t have creamed cheese so used cream of chicken soup and Boursin cheese puck. Next time I’ll play around with it and use a can of rotel, a little less liquid beef stew meat and put it in a casserole with layered tortilla chips. Could also be an interesting stroganoff base with strips of sirloin. Or Italian with a can of cannalinni beans and a can of diced tomatoes and a different type of pasta and itallian cheeses. I also used the extra wide noodles since that is what was on hand . Would definitely be good with chicken too

    I have a question. It says cream cheese and then in preferences it says or cream of chicken. When I see ” cream of chicken” I think of condensed soup. Am I missing something ?

      you can use a brick of cream cheese or you can use a can of condensed cream of chicken soup
