Instant Pot Matcha Cheesecake

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

This Instant Pot matcha cheesecake is for those of you who want to eat cheesecake, but don’t want to fuss with the process of making it. It’s best if you make this the day ahead, but I’m not going to lie – I’ve eaten this warm, almost directly out of the pressure cooker and it was still great.

Instant Pot Matcha Cheesecake

This cheesecake is dense but creamy, packed with grassy matcha flavor but lightened up with sweetened sour cream and a drizzle of maple flavored syrup. I know the syrup sounds weird, but you have to trust me and try this. It’s divine, plus it looks fantastic.

You could also make this with a crust, perhaps almond flour based, but I decided to skip in favor of lower carbs and an even easier preparation.

6. When you open the Instant Pot there may be some water on top of the cheesecake, just gently pat it off with a paper towel. A lot of the times I also find some cracks, but they are easily covered up with the sour cream topping.
