    This sweet and salty Paleo Instant Pot Bacon Jam will be your new favorite condiment. It is delicious on burgers, eggs, layered over cheese, or licked directly off a spoon. If you are not on a Paleo diet, it is also fantastic on toast.

    I was given a copy of the "I Love My Instant Pot Paleo Recipe Book" by Michelle Fagone of Cavegirlcuisin to review and give my honest opinion.

    Bacon Jam Recipe 

    I decided to try this paleo bacon jam recipe. Without any added sugar, I was curious to see how it would turn out.

    It was super easy bacon jam recipe to make......

    You just cooked the bacon and onions on the Saute setting, then pressure cooked with the remaining ingredients. Easy? Yes?

    Most importantly, this pressure cooker bacon jam was DELICIOUS! The natural sweetness from the maple syrup made it perfectly sweet and complimented the saltiness of the bacon. The added chipotle gave the saltiness and sweetness a hint of heat which created a lovely balance of flavors. I loved it! I used it on burgers and I can't wait to add it to my eggs. The bacon jam will refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

    *Note: I didn't have the instant espresso powder on hand, so I substituted ½ cup of strong coffee in placement of the water and espresso powder when creating this recipe. It turned out beautifully.
