That will honestly depend. I prefer 6 minutes as it makes the cabbage nice and soft but not too mushy. For cabbage with a little more crisp, you can reduce the time to 4 minutes. My pressure cooker takes about 15 minutes to come to pressure with this recipe.

Recipe Notes
Notes on Instant Pot Pressure Cooker Collard Greens
This recipe was prepared in a 6Qt Instant Pot Duo.
You can substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth. You can also omit the butter, but then it wouldn’t be buttered cabbage.
Serve with a slotted spoon.
I highly recommend investing in a good black pepper grinder. There is nothing like fresh ground pepper.
