Instant Pot Sealing Ring 2-Pack, 6 Quart

View on Amazon

The sealing ring, while not the most exciting part of the Instant Pot, plays an essential role in its function. It seals in pressure, ensuring a safe, and successful pressure build.

But if you're familiar with the Instant Pot you already know that the sealing ring can hold on to odors. This multi-pack of sealing rings from Instant Pot allows you to designate a ring for different types of food, say sweet or savory.

Instant Pot 7.5-Inch Nonstick Springform Pan

This is another product that comes straight from the manufacturers of the Instant Pot. This springform pan was made to fit in the Instant Pot, so you can use it to make anything from lasagna to cake. Plus, the durable stainless steel can endure rapid heat change, including going straight from the freezer to the inner pot, or vice versa.

BiaoGan Stackable Egg Steamer Rack

$19 at Amazon

One of my favorite uses for the Instant Pot is making hard-boiled eggs. The shells practically fall off when you go to peel them. But sometimes you'll crack an egg or two as they roll around in the inner pot or on the trivet.

This stackable trivet is specially designed to hold eggs in place as they steam. It also gives you the ability to cook up to 18 large eggs in one 6-quart Instant Pot.

Instant Pot Yogurt Cups and Pressure Sterilization Rack

$12 at Amazon

One of the more unexpected features of the Instant Pot is its ability to make yogurt—and this set helps you make yogurt, or anything you need in small quantities, directly in serving cups.

Instant Pot Mini-Mitt Mini Mitts

$8 at Amazon

Pulling out the inner pot can be a challenge. It's too hot to handle without oven mitts, but it can also be hard to get a grip on the pot with fabric mitts. That's where these mini silicone mitts come in handy. The ridged, silicone surface makes for easy gripping so you can lift the inner pot with ease. We tested them and like having them on hand for quick (hot) kitchen tasks where we don't want to slip on a whole mitt or oven glove, but offer more safety than a dish rag. The silicone is also effortless to clean should there be any splatters.

Instant Pot Ceramic Nonstick Inner Pot

$35 at Amazon $50 at Walmart View on Instanthome.com

Stainless steel is a great material for the inner pot, but after certain recipes, it's a pain to clean. For easier cleanup, you can't go wrong with this ceramic, nonstick-coated inner pot. It's both PTFE- and PFOA-free. And it's dishwasher safe!

Instant Pot 6-Quart Tempered Glass Lid

This tempered glass lid gives you a look inside your beloved Instant Pot whenever you're slow cooking, sautéing, browning, or using the keep warm function. It features a stream vent to reduce condensation for more visibility.

Fox Run Collapsible Silicone Steamer Basket Insert for Instant Pot

$38 at Amazon $36 at Home Depot

Unlike wire mesh baskets that can trap food inside and take up much-needed cabinet space, this food-grade silicone steamer basket is easy to clean, and it's foldable for easy storage. Forget rusting, denting, or breaking, the silicone material makes for top-notch durability. And the long, easy-to-grip handles allow you to pull whatever you're steaming directly out of the inner pot with ease. Use the steamer basket to steam anything from vegetables to dumplings and more.

Instant Pot Silicone Egg Bites Pan

$17 $13 at Amazon

The Instant Pot is all about making life easier, so why not use it to make the most convenient, portable breakfast possible: egg bites. This set includes one steamer rack, two egg bite molds, and two silicone spatulas.

Instant Pot Silicone Cover

$13 at Amazon $24 at Walmart View on Instanthome.com

Turn your inner pot into an airtight storage container using this silicone lid. This lid makes food storage containers obsolete—and don't we all love cutting down on dishes to clean?

If you have an Instant Pot with an air fryer lid, you know that it instantly turns your Instant Pot into both an air fryer and a dehydrator. These stackable dehydrator racks make it easy to dehydrate meats, fruits, and more in bulk without making a big mess.

These tiered steamer pans allow you to cook your sides and main dish all in one pot. It comes with two interchangeable lids, one for steaming and an airtight one for baking, cooking, or food storage.

HOMEST 2 Compartment Carry Bag for Instant Pot

$37 $35 at Amazon

If you don't have much counter space to spare, you're probably not going to be storing your Instant Pot on the counter full-time. The alternatives, like pantries and cabinets, are often rife with dust. Even if you are keeping it on your counter, it's bound to receive its fair share of grease splatters. Protect your beloved appliance from all the elements of your kitchen—dust, dirt, grease, and more. This dust cover features an easy-to-clean aluminum liner and wide storage pockets (great for storing your new Instant Pot accessories).

Instant Pot Silicone Roasting Rack

$14 $9 at Amazon

This roasting rack sits at the bottom of your Instant Pot's inner pot and allows air to flow under the fish, chicken, vegetables, or whatever you're cooking. It also means they aren't cooking in their juices. When not in-use, it doubles as an emergency trivet.
