Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, stir together PUMPKIN PUREE, CREAM CHEESE, WHITE PEPPER, and NUTMEG until well-combined. Set aside.
• Stir together PASTA, OIL, WATER, and SALT in the Instant Pot.
• Select "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" on HIGH for 1 minute (for classic pasta shells) or 2 minutes (for thicker pasta: rotini, bowtie, macaroni, penne, etc).
• When pressure cook cycle completes, allow the cooker to sit undisturbed for a 10-minute natural pressure release (NPR). Do not cut this time short because the pasta is still cooking.

• Stir MILK into the pasta and pasta water, then add the pumpkin pasta sauce and PARMESAN CHEESE.
• Continue simmering until pasta and sauce are heated through, stirring as needed. Add SALT to taste.
