Instructions

  • Peel and cube those sweet potatoes so they cook evenly in your pressure cooker.
  • Pop them into the cooker with just enough water to steam, lock on that sealing ring and make sure your float valve rises when it’s pressure time.
  • Set your cooker for about 10 minutes on high pressure.
  • Prepare butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and spices to mix after potatoes are cooked.
  • Do a quick release to let out the steam and open your pot carefully.
  • Mash in the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, pepper, and half the pecans.
  • Transfer mixture into a greased baking dish and spread out evenly.
  • Top with remaining pecans and marshmallows, then bake in preheated oven at 350°F until marshmallows are golden.
