How to Cook SWEET POTATOES IN THE INSTANT POT | Quick + Easy way to Cook Sweet Potatoes! Instant Pot

[@kdharris6909]

Pass along a tip once you have cooked your sweet potatoes in the instant pot you can peel them and let them cool and then make a sweet potato pie. this is one quick way to get your potatoes cooked

[@maplejubilee]

Yes...I was thinking about doing that this year lol! Super easy. Do you do anything to get the stringy pieces off once its cooked so your pie will be smooth?

[@kdharris6909]

@@maplejubilee the majority of the stringiness of mashed sweet potatoes comes from the fibrous parts of the potato that are near the skin. if you cook your sweet potatoes during the process of removing the skin you can make sure you remove a thick layer of the skin so that you pull off the stringy parts so once you cream up your potatoes for your pie there is not stringy parts. No matter of you peel the potatoes before cooking them you want get all the stringy parts of because you cant see them. I hope this will help you.

Exactly What I am doing right now!

[@firesoul453]

Other channels are saying like 15 minutes but 30 minutes worked perfectly for me. Thank you.

[@maplejubilee]

Yesss!! That's what I saw at first too. I was so confused lol. It definitely takes longer than that.

[@manifestcrypto4955]

I bought the vegetable brush that you suggested, with your link. It is great! My sweet potatoes turned out great! I appreciate your video!

Thank you so much, for this. I’m considering buying an Instant Pot, and sweet and white potatoes are something that I was hoping could be cooked in it. 😀👍🏼

Thank you. Bought an Instant Pot and trying this today.

[@maplejubilee]

Yay!! I think this was the first thing I made too😊

[@neelatare9755]

Thanks. I liked it. I was looking for the duration to cook. I mashed them, add Amaranth flour, peanut powder, green chili, ginger, some yogurt and salt. Make a dough, pat it on skillet with tablespoon of oil , cover and cook for 4-5 minutes, turn it, cook it a minute or two on other side without cover. I eat it with some ghee and Indian pickle.

[@jpagan7448]

Thank you! Peace!

[@cmchandelier]

Worked like a charm! Didn’t poke holes in them with a fork, just cut the tips off the ends. Thanks for this video!!!

Great! And you're so welcome!

[@nighthiker8872]

Very healthy, I steam cook them, then I eat them cold in the morning with Bragg Nutritional Yeast, It's pack with Bs- vitamins. Eat them cold like ice cream. Been on the Keto diet, lost 60 pounds.

[@nighthiker8872]

Bs are brain power.

[@maplejubilee]

That's awesome! I think I will try steaming them and then adding them to my breakfast in the morning too. Might be good in smoothies or a frittata😊

[@studiosingyourstyle]

How much Bragg yeast do you use? I purchased that but have never used it

[@nighthiker8872]

@@studiosingyourstyle Just a teaspoon per sweet potato.

[@mariannesouza8326]

I know this is a year old, but congratulations on your weight loss! 👏🏼👍🏼

[@denyce49]

I wanted a side dish of sweet potatoes but it was quite late. Went to KZbin, found recipes, and washed, cut in half the potatoes, 1 c water and put them on my veggie setting (used alternative pressure cooker) and brought up cooking time to 10 mins. I let them natural pressure relief. I didn't peel these in the beginning the skins came completely off w/o waste. They were so sweet. I put some butter and honey/ginger/lemon

[@MojoSkillz]

Thanks you for the tutorial you are a blessing god bless you

[@logomaneye]

If you want it to be soft fast take knife first and crack them from left to right try to get deep but not to much this make the hot air get inside and cook faster After its done you can peel it easily

I can't wait to try this. Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite snacks. I have been baking them in the oven for 50 minutes. This will save me time. Can I ask if you eat the skins?

[@maplejubilee]

You're welcome! I personally don't eat the skins. They aren't as thin as regular potato skins in my opinion, but it's totally up to you.

[@mroberts2002]

@@maplejubilee I made my some sweet potatoes in my instantpot yesterday and they came out as creamy as mashed potatoes. Delish! I do eat the skins - I understand they are a nutritional treasure trove and they don't taste so bad to me. Love your recipes. Thanks for responding to my question 😋💕

[@e.m.8094]

I make a lot at once and put a little less than a cup of water in. The potatoes at the bottom are always kind of mushy. Is there a better way or a better rack to avoid this?

[@maplejubilee]

Good question. Not sure of any other racks. Mine at the bottom are like that too, but it doesnt bother me too much. I absolutely hate when they aren't soft enough so I may be bias lol.

[@JesseLockeHere2Do]

Thanks because my little quick chart says 9-14 minutes for whole potatoes on high.

[@maplejubilee]

You're welcome. Yeah a lot of those charts say much lower times, not sure why.

[@patiaday1]

After the timer reaches 0, do I let it naturally release for 10 min, or do I press “OFF” first?

[@YourFavoritePO]

I hear you, I need my potatoes soft as well! I usually cook mine in the microwave...don't judge me! 😂😂

[@maplejubilee]

Lol! No judgement here. Shoot I cooked mine in the microwave too, before I got the Instant pot, lol. The problem I would run into with the microwave is that some parts of the potato would be over cooked and kind of hard. Then I could only eat half of it😠

[@sciencenow305]

Girl, where did you get that scrub brush. You said you'd put a link in the description box, but you didn't. I wanna support you. :-)

[@maplejubilee]

LOL! My bad. Here you go - amzn.to/3fKHzui. And thank you so much for your support! :)

[@jillellen2631]

I have 2 big sweet potatoes about a pound apiece with 8 inch girths! Would you suggest I cut them in half and cook them that way? Thanks! Great video!!

[@maplejubilee]

I would keep them whole. But you will probably have to increase your cook time to between 35-40 minutes. Don't forget to poke it some with a fork before you put them in the instant pot!😉

[@jillellen2631]

@@maplejubilee Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and cut them in half and cooked them for 30 minutes. They came out really good and creamy--a little on the soft side but I think that next time, I'll cook them whole as you suggest.:)

28 is my magic number

this recipe is money.. I cooked 1 single S.P by itself, and backed off the timing a few minutes.. was still kinda firm in the middle. 30 min with 15 min N/R then quick is the way to go

Thank you so much!

[@Ai-Ex-Music]

why not put less time and cook 1 potato ? pressure cookers save nutrients, storing some for later to then reheat them defeats the purpose

[@maplejubilee]

Instant pot requires the same cook time no matter if you are making 1 potato or 5.

[@DC-pp8xf]

I like to meal prep for the week. You don’t lose much nutrients by saving them for later.

[@Ai-Ex-Music]

@@DC-pp8xf but reheating them for a second time will, whether it be in the microwave or the oven
