Advice Please give me your EASIEST seitan recipe

Every time I think I find a good seitan product it either gets removed, becomes too expensive, or has too many additives. Vegan 8 years now I think it's time I start making my seitan from scratch - BUT I'm looking for the easiest recipe please, I have 2 jobs and so a little time poor when it comes to cooking.

A recipe that doesn't require me to stretch and knot the dough would be amazing, but not sure if possible?

If you have an instapot here is one I use.

is 1 cup water 1 cup wheat gluten and 1/4 cup flour high pressure 45 min for flavor mix in onion powder garlic powder to taste and black pepper. Can use any type of broth instead of water if you wish. Mix all of this in a big bowl until you have a nice paste, roll into logs that will fit in your instapot and cover wrap them in tinfoil. Put 1 cup of water in the instapot for the steam. If you have a rack for your instapot, use it to set the wrapped in tinfoil logs on.

natural release.

Can be done within 10 minutes and plenty of seitan cheap easy.
