Ingredients

1 ½ cups vital wheat gluten
¼ cup garbanzo bean flour
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
½ teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon crushed dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups vegetable broth, divided
2 tablespoons tamari
2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

Whisk wheat gluten, bean flour, nutritional yeast, thyme, oregano, and salt together in a medium bowl.
Whisk 1 cup broth, tamari, liquid smoke, and sesame oil together in a small bowl. Add to dry ingredients and stir until well combined. A dough will start to form.
Knead for 5 minutes, then form into a log shape about 2 inches in diameter and 8 inches long. Wrap with cheesecloth.
Place in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) with remaining broth. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
Remove seitan and let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
