Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.

Step 2

Add in the 3/4 cup of water and stir the mixture together. A squishy dough will come together immediately, but just keep stirring until all the dry ingredients are incorporated into the dough.

Step 3

On a cutting board, knead the dough for about 3-5 minutes until you press your finger into the center and the dough bounces right back.

Step 4

Chop the dough into bite size pieces and place them in an even layer on the bottom of your pressure cooker.

Step 5

Pour water into the bottom of your pressure cooker until water is almost covering the top of the seitan pieces. It's okay if some of the seitan is still above the water line.

Step 6

Cover your pressure cooker and cook the seitan on the manual or meat setting for 16 minutes.

Step 7

After 16 minutes, release the pressure and remove the pressure cooker lid.

Step 8

The seitan will have expanded so feel free to cut the seitan chunks into smaller bite size pieces.

Step 9

Use the seitan in stir fries, curries, or on top of pizza.
