Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp butter, divided
  • 2 yellow onions, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 large russet potatoes, skinned and cubed (about 4 cups)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/2 tsp each salt & pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 8 slices turkey bacon
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 bunch green onions, sliced

Directions

  1. 1

    Add 2 tbsp butter, onions, garlic, potatoes and chicken broth to Instant Pot in that order. Cook on high pressure for 3 minutes then do a quick release of the pressure.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, cook turkey bacon in a large frying pan and chop up, then grate cheese and slice green onions.

  3. 3

    When potato mixture has finished pressure cooking, do the quick release then open the lid when safe to do so. Turn onto saute mode and mash potatoes and a spoon or masher, leaving some chunks. Stir in butter, salt & pepper and flour, whisking to combine.

  4. 4

    Stir in milk and sour cream then bring just to a simmer. Turn off saute mode and then ladle into bowls, topping with turkey bacon, cheddar cheese, green onions and a dollop of sour cream. Serve and enjoy!
