Tastes great and was easy to make in my Instant Pot pressure cooker. A spring-form pan makes removing the cheesecake easy and can be found on Amazon (along with Swerve if you can’t find it locally). For this recipe you’ll also need: parchment paper, aluminum foil and 2 cups of water for the pressure cooker. My cheesecakes usually have a crust so I have a great recipe for low-carb cookies that taste great crumbled over.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream divided (half for the topping)
- 1/2 cup swerve with 2 additional teaspoons (for topping)
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 eggs
Steps
- Allow Ingredients to come to room temperature.
- Blend together lemon juice, vanilla extract, 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup swerve, cream cheese.
- Add eggs and blend just long enough to mix (around 30 secs). (I do this by hand just long enough for it to be pourable)
- Line 6 inch spring-form pan with parchment paper. I cut mine to have it cover the sides.
- Place trivet in pressure cooker and add 2 cups water.
- Pour mixture into pan and then cover with aluminum foil.
- Place pan on trivet and set the pressure cooker to high pressure, cooking for 20 minutes.
- While that’s cooking, prepare the topping by combining the last two ingredients.
- Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release pressure and then remove pan.
- Remove foil and carefully cover the cheesecake with the topping you prepared earlier.
- Place in refrigerator for 8 hours to allow the cheese cake to reach proper firmness.
- Remove spring-form pan and carefully peel away parchment paper.
