• Combine cranberries, sugar, orange juice, orange zest, and salt in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. Add cinnamon stick and select Saute function; cook until sauce thickens, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove and discard cinnamon stick.
• Blend sauce with an immersion blender for a smoother consistency. Let cool; sauce will continue to thicken naturally.

INSTANT POT CRANBERRY ORANGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients to the inner liner of the Instant Pot.
• Close the lid, move the sealing knob to Sealing position. Press Manual, adjust time to 2 minutes.
• Once the cooking time of two minutes is done after it has come to pressure, wait for the pressure to release naturally. The little stainless steel pin near the sealing knob will fall down. It will take about 10 mins, maybe more if you double the recipe. Open the lid.
• Mash the cranberries to mix with the liquid. You can mash them really well or leave some cranberry pieces as it is, whatever you prefer.
• Once cooled completely, move to a clean glass jar and store in the refrigerator for up to a week to 10 days.

INSTANT POT® CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine cranberries, orange juice, water, cinnamon stick, and vanilla extract in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 1 minute. Allow about 10 minutes for pressure to build. As soon as the cooking cycle finishes, turn the Instant Pot® off, as overcooking the cranberries will cause the skins to break.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 7 minutes. Unlock and carefully remove the lid.
• Turn Instant Pot® back on and select Saute function. Stir white sugar and brown sugar into cranberry mixture until sugar melts. Season with a pinch of salt. As soon as sugar has melted, turn off the Instant Pot® to avoid overcooking. Taste cranberry sauce and stir in more sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, depending on how sweet you like your cranberry sauce.
• Transfer sauce to a serving dish and top with orange peel. Serve warm or cold. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.

• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Switch to the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions to release remaining pressure, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Select Saute function and low heat. Add orange marmalade and brown sugar to the cranberry mixture. Cook and stir to combine, breaking up cranberries, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off Instant Pot® and let cranberry sauce cool. Sauce will thicken upon cooling. Store in the refrigerator. For best flavor, bring to room temperature before serving.
