Instant Pot® Sweet Acorn Squash

This recipe is good, however, like others who commented, I found I had to increase the cook time to fully cook the squash halves. The only difficulty I had in getting the squash out of my Instant Pot was that the squash was soft once cooked through. The flavors are good and I will be keeping this recipe for future use. My adjustments are as follows: Cook time done at 5 minutes with 7 minute natural release as per the recipe, although after testing the squash I put it back in for another 3 minute cook time and let it natural release for 14 minutes before serving. I also doubled my glaze quantitity for the flavor.

I drizzled olive oil and cracked pepper over the halved squash before sealing the pot.

This turned out well. It's flavored nicely. The only thing I added is some salt and pepper. I used a rather small squash, and it did not get completely done on the very bottom of both halves. I think another minute would have done it. Be very careful taking the squash out of the pot so you don't spill any of the melted filling and so you don't burn yourself. When I cook squash in the IP in the future, I may just cook it plain and add the filling once it's done.
