Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 6 medium sweet potatoes scrubbed clean
- Flaky salt and ground pepper to taste

Instructions
- Pour the water into your Instant Pot and add in the insert. Arrange the potatoes over the insert.
- Cook on high pressure for 20-30 minutes (depending on the size of your potatoes, mine were medium and 20 min was enough). Once the time is up, allow the pot to naturally release the pressure.
- Once the potatoes have cooled enough to handle, slice them lengthwise and season to taste and garnish with fresh thyme.
