Instant Pot® Mashed Cauliflower with Garlic image

Using very little liquid, your electric pressure cooker can whip up creamy mashed cauliflower in next to no time. Feel free to add additional Parmesan or any other shredded cheese you like. For a vegan version, use oil in place of butter, skip the cheese entirely, and stir in some nutritional yeast or ground chipotle at the end for additional flavor.

2 tablespoons butter, or more to taste

I roasted some garlic cloves and added them to the mashed cauliflower. It gave it a delicious roasted garlic flavor that was out of this world.
