Step 1

Spray liner generously with cooking spray so grits don't stick to pot. Pour in water first to create a barrier, then add salt and grits. Whisk gently to combine.

Step 2

Secure on lid and make sure valve is in sealed position. Cook under HIGH pressure for 10 minutes. After cook time has ended, hit CANCEL, and let pressure release naturally for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Remove lid and add butter with milk or cream. Whisk vigorously to remove any clumps. You may also need to use a back of a spoon to break up any clumps.

Step 4

For cheesy grits add cheddar cheese and stir until blended. If necessary, season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
