03 Method
  • Step 1
    Set Instant Pot to Saute and heat oil. Add onion and cook until softened, 4 to 6 minutes. Add oregano and crushed red pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, 1 minute more. Add beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until no pink remains. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 2
    Using a slotted spoon, remove beef and place in a large bowl. Add 2 1/2 cups marinara to meat and toss to combine. Remove the Instant Pot bowl and clean.
  • Step 3
    In a medium bowl, stir to combine ricotta, egg, Parmesan, and basil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 4
    Build lasagna: Spray an 8" springform pan with cooking spray. Spread 1/4 cup marinara in the bottom of the pan. Add a layer of noodles, trimming to fit the pan, then top with 1/2 the ricotta mixture. Add 1/2 the meat mixture and sprinkle with 1/2 cup mozzarella. Add another layer of noodles, then add the remaining ricotta mixture and meat sauce in even layers. Top with more noodles, remaining 1/4 cup marinara, and remaining mozzarella.
  • Step 5
    Add 1 1/4 cup water to the bottom of Instant Pot, then fit with a trivet. Place lasagna on the trivet and secure lid. Set Instant Pot to high and cook for 22 minutes. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release.
  • Step 6
    If desired, set oven broiler to high and broil until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then garnish with basil before serving.
