Stove top instructions:

Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover by 1". Cover and cook over high heat until boiling, then remove the lid and reduce the temperature to medium. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender, then drain completely in a colander.

Place the sweet potatoes back in the pot and mash with a potato masher until the desired consistency is reached. Add the half and half, butter, orange zest, rosemary, salt and pepper, to taste and stir until combined. Adjust the seasoning as necessary, serve and enjoy!

Instant Pot instructions:

Place the sweet potatoes in the Instant Pot followed by 1 cup of water. Secure the lid and close the sealing valve, and cook at High Pressure for 8 minutes. Note: the Instant Pot will take 10-15 minutes to come to pressure. When the cooking process is done, quick release the pressure and remove the lid when safe to do so.

Drain the sweet potatoes very well in a colander, then place back in the Instant Pot. Mash them until they reach the desired consistency, then add the half and half, butter, orange zest, rosemary, salt and pepper, to taste and stir well until combined. Adjust the seasoning as necessary. Serve and enjoy!
