This Instant Pot Cheesecake comes out perfectly smooth and creamy every time. It's a great way to make a rich, decadent dessert without turning on the oven!
Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 3 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (optional, for a thicker texture)
For the Topping:
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Crust
- In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 7-inch springform pan.
- Freeze the crust for 10-15 minutes to set it while preparing the cheesecake filling.
2️⃣ Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth.
- Add the sugar and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in the sour cream and flour (if using), mixing until smooth.
3️⃣ Assemble the Cheesecake
- Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
4️⃣ Prepare the Instant Pot
- Add 1 1/2 cups of water to the bottom of the Instant Pot.
- Place the cheesecake pan on a trivet or steam rack and lower it into the Instant Pot.
- Secure the lid and set the Instant Pot to Manual (High Pressure) for 40 minutes.
- When the time is up, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure naturally for 10 minutes, then use quick release to release any remaining pressure.
5️⃣ Chill and Serve
- Carefully remove the cheesecake from the Instant Pot and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set.
- For the topping, mix sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a small bowl and spread it over the top of the cheesecake before serving.
Tips:
- For a flavored cheesecake, you can add fruit or chocolate swirls into the batter before cooking.
- If you don’t have a springform pan, you can use a regular cake pan that fits inside your Instant Pot.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened completely before mixing to avoid lumps in the batter.
Enjoy your rich, creamy Instant Pot Cheesecake! It’s the perfect dessert for any occasion! 😋
