Instructions
- Sliced the ends off of the squash, cut it in half and scoop out the seeds.
- Cut each half of the squash into 4 pieces.
- Place the trivet inside your Instant Pot and add 2 cups of water.
- Add in the butternut squash on the trivet and attach the lid and ensure the valve is in the "sealing" position.
- Set the Instant Pot to "pressure cook - manual high" for 15 minutes.
- Once the Instant Pot has finished cooking, release the pressure manually by switching the valve to the "venting" position - be careful it might splatter and hot steam will come out of the top!
- Remove the squash from the IP and gently remove the flesh off the squash,
- With a fork or a potato masher, mash the squash until the lumps are gone and you get the texture you would like. If you want it smoother you can also use an electric mixer.
- Continue by placing the squash into a large bowl. Add in the butter, so it melts into the mixture.
- Continue by adding the salt, pepper, sour cream, mix until combined and serve.
- Optional: garnish with fresh rosemary, chives, or basil.
