Ingredients
- 3 pounds Russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup sour cream
- Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the potatoes, water, and a couple pinches of salt to the Instant Pot, lock the lid in place, and set to manual, high, and 10 minutes cook time.
- Add the butter and milk to a small pot and bring to a simmer on the stovetop. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- When the timer goes off, turn the valve to “quick release.” Drain any remaining water and transfer the potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher until smooth.
