After Pressure Cooking:
- Scoop the flesh out of the sweet potatoes into the Instant Pot.
- Select Saute and add the “After Pressure Cooking” ingredients. Stir to combine, until sugar and butter are melted.
- Turn off Instant Pot.
- Mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher, a whisk or even use a hand mixer to make them fluffier.
