Ingredients
- Crust
- • 1¾ c graham cracker crumbs
- • 12 tbsp butter melted
- • 2 tbsp brown sugar
- Swirl
- • 1 c fresh raspberries (washed and dried with a paper towel)
- • 1½ tbsp granulated sugar
- Cheesecake Filling
- • 24 oz cream cheese softened
- • 1 c granulated sugar
- • 3 tbsp flour
- • ⅓ c lemon juice
- • 1 tbsp lemon zest
- • 1 c sour cream
- • 3 large eggs
- Lemon Topping
- • 3 large eggs
- • ⅔ c granulated sugar
- • 1 tbsp lemon zest
- • ⅓ c lemon juice
- • 4 tbsp butter
- • 1 c fresh raspberries
Instructions
Cheesecake Crust
- Start by cutting a circle of parchment paper to fit into the bottom of the 7-inch springform pan.
- Once that is done, you're going to stir the butter and sugar into the graham cracker crumbs. It will be crumbly but wet.
- Take that mixture and press it down into the bottom and up sides of the pan.
- Once you have it added and pressed down, take and place the crust in the freezer.
Cheesecake Filling
- Grab a large bowl, and begin to beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
- Once that is done, take and add in the sugar, flour, lemon zest, lemon juice, and sour cream. Mix very well.
- Then you're going to add in the eggs, one at a time, and be certain to mix after adding in each egg.
- Once mixed, take and pour the filling into the crust.
- Add your raspberries and sugar in a food processor and process them until mixed.
- Then, take and drop spoonfuls of the processed raspberry mixture over the surface of the cheesecake. You can then use a butterknife to give it a swirling effect.
- Once you have that done, take and cover the cheesecake with foil and make certain that the edges are sealed. Also, take and poke a small hole in the center of the foil to release steam.
- Next, pour in 1 cup water to the bottom of your Instant Pot
- After that, take and put the cheesecake on the trivet that comes with the Instant Pot and lower it into the pot.
- Seal your Instant Pot according to the directions and then set to high pressure and cook for 55 minutes.
- Once the time is up, allow the pressure to release and then manually release any remaining pressure. Take and remove the cheesecake and let it cool on a rack after you've also taken off the foil.
Lemon Topping
- Crack open the eggs and pour them into a bowl. Then, lightly mix the eggs.
- In a medium saucepan, start to combine the eggs, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. You're going to want to cook them over medium-low heat and be certain that you're stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Do this until the mixture becomes creamy.
- Once that happens, lower the heat to low and continue to stir and cook until it becomes nice and thick. (will stick and cover the back of your spoon)
- Once done, take off the heat and stir in the butter.
- Allow time for the lemon topping mixture to cool, then take and spread it over top of cheesecake. Add fresh raspberries on top.
- Place back in the fridge to chill before serving. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
