Set the electric pressure cooker to “saute.” When hot, add the olive oil and garlic. Cook the garlic until browned on both sides. Add the water. Cancel the saute mode.
Place the cauliflower florets in a steamer basket. Lower the steamer basket into the electric pressure cooker.
Cover and seal the electric pressure cooker. Set on “manual” or “pressure cook” for 3 minutes. Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release the steam for 10 minutes before a quick release of the remaining pressure.
Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl or food processor and all the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth.
