Cook up your sweet potatoes in a fraction of the time in your Instant Pot. Ready to enjoy in 20 minutes, they are great to serve as a quick side or main.
Scrub the skin of sweet potatoes with a brush until clean. Pour water into Instant Pot and place the steamer basket in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Place sweet potatoes inside the steamer basket.
Secure the lid and turn valve to sealing.
Pressure cook the sweet potatoes on high for 15 minutes.
Allow pressure to release naturally.
Once the pressure has released, remove the lid and carefully remove the basket with the sweet potatoes.
Serve the sweet potatoes warm with a little bit of butter and a sprinkle of rosemary on top.
You can also store in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
NOTES
Use a steamer basket to place the sweet potatoes into the Instant Pot.
Naturally release the pressure once done cooking. This will continue to cook the sweet potato flesh so that they are nice and tender.
