When pressure cooking is done, let the instant pot release naturally for five minutes. Then do a quick release.
Remove lid and add milk, Craisins, and cinnamon. Stir well, and let the oats sit for about 20-30 minutes.
Spoon oats into individual serving bowls, and sprinkle with additional cinnamon to serve.
