14. #### Step-by-Step Instructions:
16. 1. **Prepare Your Ingredients:** Measure out the steel cut oats and the water or pumpkin puree into a large bowl. Stir in the salt.
18. 2. **Add Flavorings:** In a small bowl, combine the butter or oil with the pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and any optional sweetener you choose to add for extra flavor.
20. 3. **Combine Ingredients:** Pour the wet ingredients (water/pumpkin puree) into your Instant Pot. Add the steel cut oats, stirring well to ensure they are evenly coated with the liquid.
22. 4. **Seasoning Step:** Add the spice mixture and stir thoroughly until everything is well combined.
24. 5. **Sealing the Pressure Cooker:** Place a steaming rack on the bottom of the Instant Pot. Put the lid in place and turn it to seal, making sure the valve is set to "sealed." Secure the lid with the locking ring if your model requires it.
26. 6. **Cooking Time:** Set the Instant Pot to manual or pressure cook mode for 5 minutes. For a creamy consistency, you may need an additional 2-3 minutes of natural release after the cooking time ends.
28. 7. **Natural Release and Serve:** Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release its steam for about 10-15 minutes. This ensures that your oats are perfectly cooked and creamy.
30. 8. **Serve Hot:** Once it’s safe, carefully remove the lid (be cautious of hot steam) and use an immersion blender or whisk to blend any lumps. Serve immediately with a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.
32. 9. **Storage Tips:** If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove over low heat before serving.
