Here’s a yummy pressure cooker breakfast bundt cake full of eggs, biscuits, ham or bacon & more! Make it in your Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi just like our baked breakfast bundt cake for brunch today.
I made this pressure cooker breakfast bundt cake not knowing how it would turn out and was surprised to find it out it worked amazingly well!! Packed with eggs, leftover ham, onions and biscuits it was hearty and full of flavor! Definitely on the top of our quick and easy Instant Pot recipes on The Typical Mom blog.

Instant Pot Breakfast Bundt Cake
I made this breakfast bundt in the oven a while back. Then made an Instant Pot breakfast casserole with hash browns as well. This is bacon egg and cheese bundt cake is a nice cross between the two though and looks so pretty when it’s done!
This particular bundt pan to make our pressure cooker breakfast is a must because of it’s size, shape, and non stick coating. It was so good I tell you…..
If you are new to pressure cooking we have a lot of easy one pot meal recipes for you here. To begin with let’s start with a few basic tips:
- Make sure to Bookmark our InstaPot recipes page. We add new ones each week!
- Then PRINT this —–> Instant Pot cooking times cheat sheet that will help you understand how long meat, vegetables and beans take to cook in your pressure cooker.
- I HIGHLY recommend you buy this non stick pot.
- You should still deglaze pressure cooker after sautéing but it won’t have as many issues with this better liner.
For reference, this is the pressure cooker I have (a 6 quart) and use for all recipe creations.
Ninja Foodi Breakfast Bundt Cake
I started this because I had leftover ham after cooking an Instant Pot ham and hate wasting food. So…..I thought I would give this a whirl and see if it would turn out well.
- Amazing is all I have to say. You can make it in your Ninja Foodi too.
Not all I make in my pressure cooker the first time work out well, this is true. Figuring out the timing on it is the hardest part since you can’t see it like if you put it inside the oven or something. It’s kinda’ a guess when you’re developing a recipe but 30 minutes worked perfectly for this to ensure the biscuits were cooked through and the eggs weren’t still runny at all.
You could easily substitute the diced ham for bacon bits or precooked ground sausage in your egg mixture I’m sure. I am going to use sausage next time and will update with a pic. when I do that.
Pressure cooker breakfast bundt cake ingredients
You could also add a bit of cheese, I think 1/4 cup would work well. I didn’t this time because my husband is dairy free and wanted him to try it…and he loved it! Let me tell you it was so fabulous!
- 7″ bundt pan – fits in 6qt. Instant Pots or larger, the best one I’ve bought!
- Eggs
- Refrigerated biscuits – I used Grands (a bit larger than traditional ones, found right beside all others in refrigerated section at store)
- Diced ham – I used leftover ham and it was fabulous, could use real crumbled bacon or bacon bits
- Diced onion
- Seasoned salt – I used Lawry’s
- Garlic salt
- Could add a bit of cheese if desired, maybe 1/4 c shredded (I did not this time)
Such a pretty savory bundt cake idea right?? Would present well at a brunch and feeds a fair amount since it is rather dense, but FULL of flavor I tell you. If you allow it to cool at least 5 minutes it is easy to slice through as you can see on the bottom photo here and each bite had plenty of egg and ham.
Here’s a video for our easy Instant Pot breakfast bundt cake.

Time needed: 30 minutes
Instant Pot Bundt Cake
- Mix ingredients
Scramble your eggs in a bowl. Cut each Grands refrigerated biscuit into 9 pieces and put into the bowl with the egg.
Add your diced ham, garlic and seasoned salt and diced onions. (could add 1/4 c. cheese too) Fold this mixture together until biscuits are coated well with egg. - Prepare
Spray the inside of your 7″ bundt pan with non stick spray and pour your mixture in. Cover it with foil allowing the top to be a bit domed so it can rise inside the pan a bit.
Put 1 1/2 c. of water inside your pressure cooker and put a trivet at the bottom. Make a sling out of foil and lower your breakfast bundt cake down on to the trivet. - Cook
Set to pressure high for 30 minutes. Allow it to naturally release (I waited 20 minutes). Uncover and cool a bit so when you flip it over it stays in tact. Slice and enjoy!

Delicious! I made this in 4 mini bundt pans. I used 1/4 c shredded hash browns instead of biscuits. I also added 1/4 c chopped bell pepper. I used 6 eggs. After I mixed it all together I divided among the bundts and cooked in Pressure cooker for 15 minutes. We each had a Denver bundt on our plate sprinkled with a teaspoon of cheese on top. It was a wonderful New Years breakfast! Happy New Year!

This looks amazing! Any idea if I could substitute the grands for crescent rolls? (I'm going to go google the cooking time for each to compare.) Only because I have two tubes of crescents in the fridge already... Thanks!

Could you use cubed (raw) potatoes to replace the biscuits? It would make it gluten free.

No I don't think they would cook to tender.

Wondering if this especially needs to be in a bundt to cook properly, or if that's just for presentation. Or should a regular round/souffle dish work, like what I use for Instant Pot crustless quiche? Thanks!

It cooks more evenly in a bundt yes, the middle will get as done as the outsides this way
