Oh, what? You didn’t know that you could ‘bake’ your sweet potatoes in the Instant Pot? Well, you totally can! It’s quick. It’s easy. And it frees up valuable oven space around the holidays! These Easy 'Baked' Instant Pot Sweet Potatoes can be done, perfectly soft and ready to go, in just 12 minutes. Really? Really!

I was able to cook more than 4 lbs. of sweet potatoes in no time at all, days ahead of when I needed them! This means that I can make my Yummy Yam Casserole on my own schedule and in my own time. (Don’t worry, we’ll get to the Yam Casserole another day.)

Seriously, these potatoes come out so soft and tender the skins almost want to come right off. Which makes them perfect for sweet potato casseroles or even for loading up with your favorite toppings. No matter how you use them, this is by far the most easy way I’ve come across for making and baking sweet potatoes.
