I can’t exaggerate enough how easy it is to make mashed potatoes in Instant Pott. My Vegan Mashed Potatoes (Instant Pot) version, turned out to be so moist and fluffy that I will be making them like this from now on. No need to boil a large pot of water. All it takes is 1 cup of vegetable broth to cook 2 pounds of potatoes in 4 minutes. You can use this method to prepare mashed potatoes for Lentil Shepherd’s Pie.

Only 5 Ingredients For Vegan Mashed Potatoes (Instant Pot)

  1. Potatoes
  2. Vegetable Broth
  3. Non-Dairy Butter
  4. Unsweetened Non-Dairy Milk

How To Make Vegan Mashed Potatoes Instant Pot

I wanted that traditional buttery taste so I added Earth Balance Buttery Spread and a little-unsweetened soymilk and salt to taste for the yummiest mashed potatoes that taste just like traditional mashed potatoes.

To make Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes, peel potatoes and cut into quarters. Place potato chunks in Instant Pot and add vegetable broth. Cook on high pressure for 4 minutes, quick release carefully. Add non-dairy butter, non-dairy milk, and salt and mash potato with a potato masher. Delicious served with Vegan Gravy or Smothered Tofu Chicken and Collard Greens.

Mashed Potato Tips

  • Don’t use a blender, immersion blender or food processor or your mashed potatoes will end up like paste. 
  • Make your mashed potatoes an hour or two before your company arrives and set on warm settings. 
  • Store leftover mashed potatoes in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
