Ingredients

  • 6 large Russet Potatoes  about 3 pounds
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup unsalted butter 1 stick
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons   salt
  • black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Clean and peel your potatoes. Slice potatoes into large rounds or cut into pieces.
  • Add the potatoes, water, and salt to the instant pot and secure the lid on the pot. Select the high pressure/manual setting and set the timer for 10 minutes. ( It will take the pot about 7-10 minutes to come to pressure before that 10 minutes starts counting down, hence the 20-minute total cook time.) Once the 10 minutes is up and the pot beeps, do a manual release.
  • Add the butter and milk to the potatoes, then mash them right in the instant pot amd mix until they are smooth and creamy. For extra creamy mashed potatoes, you can use a hand mixer. Serve warm and garnish with more butter or herbs if desired.
