Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes

This recipe for Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes is my new favorite way to make mashed potatoes. It frees up your stovetop for other things and the potatoes come out so fluffy and smooth.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 3-4 pounds Russet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Peel the potatoes and cut into quarters. Place potatoes into the Instant Pot and cover with water. Add salt (I usually add about 1 teaspoon at this point).
  2. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and set the valve to sealing. Cook on Manual at high pressure for 10 minutes. When the timer goes off, turn the Instant Pot off and quick release the pressure.
  3. Drain the potatoes and return them to the Instant Pot. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or with a hand mixer.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the milk and the butter. Microwave for about 40 seconds. This helps the milk not to curdle or to cool the potatoes down too much. Slowly add in the butter/milk mixture until potatoes reach desired consistency.
  5. Mash in the sour cream, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you can't serve right away, turn the Instant Pot back on to the Keep Warm setting.
  • If you can't serve right away, turn the Instant Pot back on to the Keep Warm setting.
  • Store leftovers refrigerator in an airtight container for five to seven days long.
  • When ready to reheat place in the microwave or on the stovetop until heated through.
