Instant Pot Creamy Mashed Potatoes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Creamy Mashed Potatoes.

1. Step 1

   To start, you can peel the Yukon Gold potatoes if you prefer a smoother texture, then cut them into 1-inch cubes.

2. Step 2

   Next, toss those lovely potato cubes into your Instant Pot along with some water and chicken bouillon cubes for a burst of flavor.

3. Step 3

   Now, select the Sauté function and let the potatoes cook for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to help those bouillon cubes dissolve completely.

4. Step 4

   Once that’s done, it’s time to close and lock the lid of your Instant Pot.

5. Step 5

   Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to select high pressure and set the timer for 10 minutes.

6. Step 6

   Don’t forget to allow about 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build up—this is where the magic happens! When the timer goes off, let the pressure release naturally for about 10 minutes.

7. Step 7

   After that, carefully switch to the quick-release method to let out any remaining steam.

8. Step 8

   With the pressure released, remove the pot from the Instant Pot and drain off most of the liquid, but be sure to leave a little behind for moisture.

9. Step 9

   Now, it’s time to add in the creamy goodness: mix in some sour cream, cubed butter, and milk.

10. Step 10

    Grab a potato masher and gently mash everything together until you reach your desired consistency.
