Low Carb Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake

Are you a Grandma that watches your carbs?  Although I am not completely eating a Keto diet, I do watch my carbs.  It seems like my body does better without them.  So with the Thanksgiving holiday coming up, this Low Carb Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake will be on my menu.

Low Carb Instant Pot Cheesecake

I am really getting in my Instant Pot because it makes cooking so easy.  I have really been enjoying our Instant Pot Sweet Potatoes.  They make a great side dish.

With this Low Carb Pumpkin Cheesecake, I am definitely going to add some heavy whipping cream to top it off!

Low Carb Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe

Ingredients:

For the crust:
1 cup almond flour
2 tablespoons powdered erythritol sweetener
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoon butter, melted

 

For the cheesecake:
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
⅔ cup canned pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
1 cup powdered erythritol sweetener
2 eggs, room temperature
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice  (We have a great recipe for this spice mix! Click HERE.
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions:

Prepare a 7.5 inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray, wrapping aluminum foil around the bottom to protect from water seepage.

With a fork, stir together the almond flour, powdered erythritol sweetener, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and melted butter for the crust.

Press the almond flour mixture into the springform pan in a flat, tight layer. Set aside.


Place a trivet in the bottom of the electric pressure cooker liner. Add the minimum required amount of water according to the manufacturer’s instructions.


In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until soft and creamy. Add the pumpkin puree and sweeteners, continuing to beat until completely blended, about 2 minutes.

Add the eggs, one at a time, as well as the heavy cream, pie spice, cinnamon, and vanilla. Beat just until combined.

Transfer the mixture to the springform pan and spread evenly. Cover the springform pan with aluminum foil to avoid condensation water dripping onto the cheesecake.


Place the springform pan onto the trivet inside of the Instant Pot. Cover the electric pressure cooker and set the valve to sealing. Program for manual or “pressure cook” for 35 minutes.

When the cooking cycle is complete, allow the electric pressure cooker to naturally release the pressure until the pressure pin drops. Remove the lid, press to “cancel” the “keep warm” cycle, and allow the cheesecake to continue cooling inside the pressure cooker for 20 minutes before removing.

Release the springform pan and remove cheesecake.  Let cool.

Replace the aluminum foil with plastic wrap and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours prior to serving.

Oh and don’t forget the whipped cream!
