Notes

  • If you reduce or increase the amount of squash, still use 1 cup of water.  This is the amount of water needed for proper steaming.
  • If you prefer the mashed butternut squash to be more similar to candied yams, or sweet potatoes, add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and ½ teaspoon of ground nutmeg when stirring in the butter, cream and salt.
  • Leave the mashed butternut squash in the pressure cooker on the WARM setting until ready to serve.
  • Leftovers can keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week and in the freezer for up to 2 months.
