Butternut Squash in the Instant pot

1 Butternut squash

Butter

Brown sugar

Salt and pepper

Cut the Squash in half and take out the seeds.  In the seed hole, put a chunk of butter and fill it with brown sugar.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Put the halves in the instant pot and add 1 1/2 cups water.  Pressure cook for 10-12 minutes and let steam release naturally.

Take the squash out.  When it is cool enough to handle, scoop the squash out of the rind.  Mash with a potato masher.  Taste and add more butter, brown sugar, salt, and pepper if desired.
