Instant Pot Tik Tok Ramen–an Instant Pot version of the ramen recipe that’s gone viral on TikTok. This delicious ramen is super easy with just a tad more work than making Top Ramen on the stove.
Instant Pot Tik Tok Ramen with Everything Bagel Seasoning
TikTok Ramen is basically instant noodles without the seasoning packet and instead of soup you make a sauce of butter, garlic and soy sauce. The richness of the butter and the umami of the soy sauce pair perfectly. Then you top the noodle dish with everything bagel seasoning. It’s surprisingly delicious. Like 10 times better than Top Ramen with the packet.
- Some versions of TikTok ramen scramble an egg or two and stir it in with the noodles. I think this is a brilliant idea and will plan do do this next time. If you want to cook the egg in your Instant Pot I suggest moving the cooked noodles out of the pot. Melt the butter and sauté the garlic and then add in the egg and cook. Eggs do tend to stick to the bottom of the stainless steel pot but the butter should help with that. After the egg is cooked move the inner pot out of the Instant Pot to immediately stop cooking. Then toss the noodles back in the pot and add in the soy sauce, cayenne and brown sugar.
- I found my everything bagel seasoning at the normal grocery store. It is the McCormicks brand. You can also find it at Trader Joes (their store brand). I’ve also purchased it at Winco in the bulk section. It tastes great on avocado toast!
- If you’re wondering why to make ramen noodles in the Instant Pot the answer goes back to why do I use the Instant Por for anything. And my personal answer is the beauty of a hands-off approach to cooking. I love throwing something in the pot, pushing buttons and walking away. I love not worrying about water boiling over. I love using my time wisely to do other things around the house while food is cooking in my Instant Pot. So sure you definitely can make this in the same amount of time on the stove. But as for me and my house I’ll be using the Instant Pot.
My son and I made this YouTube video about making ramen in the Instant Pot a few years ago (he’s grown up so much since then!). We tested to see who could make ramen faster…me in the Instant Pot or him on the stove.

To make I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. You can also make this in a 3 or 8 quart pot with no changes.

Ya just what the hell is an Aldis, never heard of it, hey not my fault Nevada don’t have that. Allie
We enjoyed the receipe. My daughter wishes there was broth with the noodles. Thoughts on how to do that?
Sure you could add a little more water at the beginning. Maybe an extra cup??
It seems hard to imagine that the instant pot wouldn’t make the noodles too mushy. #skeptical 😂
with a 1 minute pressure cook time and a quick release it actually works quite well!
If you follow karen and use 1 minute, you’re fine. Don’t be like me and figure 2 would be better. It’s not. 2 minutes and it’s mush.
If you are like me…..sometimes I think I know better…lol but always go back to our Karen to get it right…

Hi Karen, Allie here from Nevada, just curious, I have never heard of Everything Bagel Seasoning, where in a supermarket like Walmart can i find such a thing, thank you, Allie
I know Trader Joe’s and Aldi both carry it. Do you have either of those stores near you?
Costco has a similar product. They don’t call it Everything Bagel Seasoning but it has all the same ingredients and are far less that Trader Joes and in a larger container. You’ll find it in the seasoning isle.

Hi, Joy,
Would you please share the Costco product’s name? Thank you so very much!
J Jo
I did a Google search, and it looks like Costco could be selling olde Thompson brand everything bagel seasoning.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, Martia!!
Allie. Kim here from FL. I’ve gotten it at Sam’s Club before under the Tonie’s brand name. But, most of the time I just order the Trader Joe’s brand on Amazon.
try looking in the spice isle….at Aldis that is where you will find it…at my aldis that is…..
Is nutritional information available? thx

just updated the recipe
Do you think this would turn out using rice noodles and gluten free soy sauce? My kids love ramen but I’m Celiac and cant eat it. This would be awesome if the substitutions worked!
Yes I do think that would work. I am not sure how rice noodles would work in the IP so I may just make the recipe on the stove. Unless you want to experiment with them in the IP??
could you do it at 0 time so that it is cooked in the heat from the pressure building?
Love every recipe that I have cooked that you send…
Sure!
