Ingredients
- 3½ lbs butternut squash cut into large chunks
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 oz pancetta thick, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage chopped
- 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ cup heavy cream ⅓ to ½ cup if you like the texture to be extra creamy
Instructions
- Pour 1 cup water into the Pressure Cooker.
- Place the butternut squash onto steamer basket and lower into the Pressure Cooker.
- Place the lid on and lock into place. Make sure the Steam Release Dial is in the NO STEAM position.
- Select STEAM on High for 8 minutes.
- Once finished, hit STOP, and then turn the Steam Release Dial to the RELEASE STEAM setting .
- Once the Bobber Valve has dropped, remove the lid and carefully take the squash out and set aside.
- Select SAUTE on More and add the oil.
- Once hot, add the pancetta and cook until fat has begun to render and is beginning to get crisp, about 3 minutes.
- Add the sage and cook for 1 minute.
- Hit STOP to stop the cooking.
- Return the cooked squash to the pot and add the salt, butter and cream.
- Mash and taste, adding more salt and/or cream, if desired.
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.
