Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes

These mashed potatoes are seriously simple to make. Just chop potatoes, put in the Instant Pot, pressure cook for 5 minutes, mash with vegan butter, and season to taste. You don’t even need to drain them, which means more nutrients are preserved — double win! The potatoes can be peeled, unpeeled, or partially peeled depending on your preferred texture. Peeling makes creamy mashed potatoes, while unpeeled lends a more rustic texture and eliminates a step (yep, even easier!). For seasoning, we recommend a little salt and pepper. You can also (optionally) add fresh or roasted garlic and fresh parsley for even more flavor. And if they’re not quite creamy enough (they should be!), you can add a little dairy-free milk to help them along. Just make sure it’s plain and unsweetened. We hope you LOVE these mashed potatoes!
