Recipe Summary Pumpkin Mashed Potatoes

This is what I do with leftover pumpkin after making pumpkin muffins. It's a yummy and healthy twist for your potatoes. Freeze what you do not eat.

Ingredients | Pumpkin Yam Sweet Potato

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

Cut potatoes into big chunks, leaving skins on.

Combine potatoes and 1 1/2 cups water in a stovetop pressure cooker.

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.

Drain water and mash potatoes. Stir in margarine. Stir in pumpkin, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and basil until combined.
