Instant Pot Mashed Sweet Potatoes is a bright and flavorful side dish that will steal the spotlight at dinner.
– sweet potatoes – salt – black pepper – onion powder – garlic powder – paprika
Start by washing and prepping your sweet potatoes. I peeled and then diced my sweet potatoes into 2-inch cubes. In your Instant Pot you will add in your trivet, and then 1 1/2 cup water.
Pour your diced sweet potatoes on top, and close the lid and make sure the valve is set to seal and cook for 9 minutes. Once the timer goes off do a quick release.
Carefully drain off all the liquid on sweet potatoes and place them in a bowl or pan. With a potato masher or hand mixer mash up your potatoes.
Add in your butter, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sour cream, and mix until nice and creamy. Do salt and pepper to taste.
