How to make Instant Pot Classic Cheesecake
Start by grabbing a medium bowl and adding in the graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter. Mix them all together until they are fully combined.
Once done, take and press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 7.5-inch springform pan. Then, place the pan it into the fridge.
Next, add the cream cheese into the stand mixer or bowl. Beat until smooth. Once done, you’re going to want to add in the sugar and mix it until combined.
Now add in the vanilla and egg, one at a time and make certain that you’re beating well after each addition. Once mixed, take and pour into the prepared crust.
After it’s been poured in, take and cover the cheesecake with foil and loosely wrap the pan. Then, take and fold a long piece of foil in half. Once done, place it under the cheesecake pan.
Grab the ends and fold them up to make a sling.
Take and put the trivet right into the bottom of the Instant Pot and add water to the pot. Then carefully lower the cheesecake in the sling into the Instant Pot.
Once done, you’re going to want to close the Instant Pot and the pressure release valve. Then, set the Instant Pot to the manual setting, high pressure for 30 minutes.
Once done, let the steam release naturally for 15 minutes.
Make certain to carefully remove the cheesecake and allow it to cool for 1 hour on the counter before placing it in the fridge. I would let it chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving.
