Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 ½ pounds russet potatoes, scrubbed

  • ¼ cup margarine (such as Country Crock®)

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

  • ½ 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.
