Steps:
- Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Turn a 6-quart Instant Pot® to the normal saute setting. When the pot is hot, add the pecans and cook, stirring constantly, until toasted and slightly darkened in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove to a bowl and reserve.
- Add the butter and cook, stirring, until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cream, maple syrup, cinnamon, 1 tablespoon salt and a large pinch of pepper. Add the sweet potato pieces and stir to combine. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 12 minutes.
- After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes for a rustic mash or use an immersion blender for smoother mashed potatoes. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Scoop the sweet potato mash into a large baking dish and use a large spoon to smooth it out into a single layer. If desired, scoop tablespoons of marshmallow creme onto the potatoes and allow to melt for 1 to 2 minutes, then use a butter knife to create a swirl effect. Top with the pecans.
Tips:
- Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid potatoes that are soft or have signs of sprouting.
- Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork before cooking to help them cook evenly.
- To save time, you can cook the sweet potatoes in advance and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- If you don't have an Instant Pot, you can cook the sweet potatoes in a regular pot of boiling water. Just be sure to reduce the cooking time to about 15-20 minutes.
- For a creamier texture, use a potato masher or food processor to mash the sweet potatoes.
- Season the mashed sweet potatoes with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Top the mashed sweet potatoes with goat cheese, crumbled bacon, or other desired toppings.
Conclusion:
Instant Pot Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Goat Cheese is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet potatoes are cooked to perfection in the Instant Pot, and the goat cheese adds a creamy and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
