Description

Add some pumpkin flavor and extra nutrition to your mashed potatoes with this yummy recipe made in a pressure cooker.

Ingredients

2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, scrubbed
1/4 cup margarine (such as Country Crock®)
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Directions

1 Cut potatoes into big chunks, leaving skins on.
2 Combine potatoes and 1 1/2 cups water in a stovetop pressure cooker.
3 Close cooker securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer's instructions. Heat until steam escapes in a steady flow and makes a whistling sound, about 10 minutes. Adjust temperature until regulator is gently rocking. Cook for 10 minutes. Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
4 Drain water and mash potatoes. Stir in margarine. Stir in pumpkin, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and basil until combined.
