Instructions

Cheesecake Crust:

  1. Lightly coat a 7x3-inch springform pan with nonstick spray and set it aside.
  2. Finely chop the pecans or walnuts or add them to a food processor.
  3. Add the graham cracker crumbs, ground pecans, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, brown sugar, and melted butter to a large bowl and stir until well combined.
  4. Press the mixture into the prepared springform pan. Using a measuring cup, press the crust and try to line the sides about to the middle of the pan edges.
  5. Freeze for 20-30 minutes.

Cheesecake Batter:

  1. Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before you begin.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl, I was using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy on medium-low speed.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients and continue beating until well combined and creamy. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula.
  4. Remove the crust from the freezer and pour the cheesecake batter mixture into the prepared pan.

Pressure Cook:

  1. Place metal trivet into a 6-qt Instant Pot and add 1 1/2 cups water.
  2. Gently transfer the cheesecake pan onto the top of the trivet. Cover the top of the cheesecake pan (not the IP) with foil.
  3. Select the manual setting and adjust the pressure to high. Set a timer to 40 minutes.
  4. After cooking and the Instant Pot beeps, release pressure naturally for about 30 minutes.
  5. Carefully open the pot and transfer the cheesecake to a cooling rack. Let it cool for 1 hour, then run a paring knife around the edges.
  6. Note: If the cheesecake middle is not settled, cook for another 5-10 minutes and 15 minutes NPR. 
  7. Transfer the cheesecake to the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight before slicing and serving.
