Instant Pot Loaded Baked Sweet Potato (sp = 8)
From: MsSkinny @ skinnyms.com/instant-pot-loaded-baked-sweet-potato-recipe/
Everyone loves a loaded baked potato, so it’s a shame that they’re also loaded with excess calories and fat. Since we love clean versions of unhealthy foods, we created the Instant Pot Loaded Baked Sweet Potato. Sweet potatoes are healthier than white potatoes, since they’re high in fiber and vitamin A. We also used heart-healthy olive oil and walnuts, and superfood spinach, so you can enjoy this tasty treat without any guilt. The best part, though? It takes practically no time to prepare, so it’s perfect for busy nights.
Yield: 4 servings
Serving size: 1/2 sweet potato
Ingredients
For the Potato:
1 cup water
2 large sweet potatoes, washed well
3 tablespoons coconut butter

Place steamer basket in Instant Pot and add 1 cup water.
Place the sweet potatoes on top of the steamer basket.

The Instant Pot will the begin to preheat.
Once ready, the Instant Pot will being cooking to potatoes for the designated time.
When time is completed, wait 5 minutes and then carefully vent the instant pot and remove lid.
