  • Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Russet potatoes, scrubbed well
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 Tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • pepper, to taste
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Cut the potatoes into small pieces.
  • Place them into the Instant Pot and add 1 cup of water on top. Close the lid, make sure the knob is on sealing, and cook on "MANUAL" for 10 minutes.
  • When it is finished cooking, move the valve on the top of the lid to "VENTING" and do a quick release of all the pressure.
  • Drain the water from the pot.
  • Add sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to warm potatoes.
  • Using a potato masher or a hand mixer (depending if you like them chunky or smooth), mash potatoes until they reach the consistency you desire.
  • Add more salt and pepper and other seasonings as needed.
  • Serve and enjoy!
