Instant Pot Cheesecake Instructions
Cheesecake Crust

- Spray 8×3 inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray
- Cut a circle from parchment paper to the size of the bottom of your pan and place it in the bottom of pan.
- Scoop graham cracker mixture into pan and press into bottom and up sides about ½ inch.
- Chill crust while you are preparing filling.
Cheesecake Filling
- In large mixing bowl, mix cream cheese and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add in heavy cream, vanilla, sour cream, and flour. Mix until blended.
- Mix in eggs, one at a time, just until combined.
- Pour into crust and seal top of pan with aluminum foil.
- Add 1½ c. of water to bottom of your Instant Pot
- Place cheesecake pan on the trivet that comes with your pot and lower into pot.
- Replace lid on Instant Pot and seal according to your pot instructions.
- Cook on high pressure for 40 minutes. When time is up, allow cheesecake to remain in pot for 10 minutes, then manually release pressure and remove cheesecake.
- Cool cheesecake on wire rack then cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours.
Salted Caramel Topping
- In a medium saucepan, heat brown sugar and butter until butter is melted and thoroughly combined with sugar
- Add in sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup, salt, and vanilla, bringing to a boil.
- Continue to boil, continuously stirring until a candy thermometer reaches 225 degrees. If you don’t have a candy thermometer, you can drop small spoonfuls into a ½ cup of cold water. It is ready when the mixture forms a soft ball. Do not overcook as this will make the caramel become brittle.
- Allow to cool for about 7 minutes, then drizzle on top and over the sides of the cheesecake. Top with pecans. Chill for at least an hour before cutting.
