Directions:
Rinse beans. Set aside

In instant pot, turn on saute and warm the oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn off instant pot for a moment. Pour small amount of water into instant pot, and scrape along the bottom to remove any bits of food.

Add dry beans, the rest of the water, spices and 1 t of salt to the pot. Give it a stir.

Place the lid on the instant pot and make sure the valve is set to sealing. Set to manual, high pressure for 40 minutes.

Once the timer goes off, allow the pressure to release naturally for 20 minutes, then vent any remaining pressure.

Keep 2 cups of the liquid form the cooked beans into a bowl. Then drain the rest of the liquid. Return the beans back to the pot.

Use an immersion blender to blend the beans to the desired consistency, adding some of the reserved liquid as needed. The beans will continue to thicken as they cool. Add more salt to taste.
