Instructions
- Rinse and scrub the sweet potatoes.
- Add the water to the Instant Pot. Place the steaming trivet inside, and lay the potatoes on top, laying the top two across the bottom two.
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot, making sure the valve is in the sealed position.
- Use manual mode to set on high-pressure cook for 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of your sweet potato.
- Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release pressure for 10 minutes when time is done, then manually release any remaining pressure.
- Carefully remove the lid and remove sweet potatoes. Cut Sweet Potatoes open down the middle.
- Serve with butter or other toppings of your choice.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 5 days
Notes
- Topping Ideas
- You can keep it simple and just add some butter, salt, and pepper. Or, get fancy and top them with light and fluffy whipped butter like they do at restaurants!
- You can use the same sort of toppings you might for regular potatoes, like sour cream and shredded cheese, too.
- Add some chopped fresh parsley or chives for some color and fresh flavor.
- For a special treat, make some whipped cinnamon butter (just whip softened butter with a little cinnamon to make it!)
- Crunchy chopped nuts like pecans and walnuts are great, too!
- The kids LOVE some mini marshmallows on theirs – I just put some on top and pop them under the broiler for a few minutes to toast them so their ooey-gooey. It tastes like sweet potato casserole!
