Notes

How to Make Instant Pot Cheesecake ?
1. Combine softened cream cheese, yogurt, sugar and flour in a medium mixing bowl. Blend in lemon juice and vanilla extract. Place this mixture in a pan that fits in the Instant Pot. 6×6 inch pan fits.
2. Cover the pan with a paper towel and aluminum foil, so the condensation does not go into the cheesecake. Add 1.5 cups of water to the instant pot steel insert and place a trivet in. Put the covered pan on the trivet. Close the lid. Vent SEALED position.
3. Press Manual or Pressure Cook mode. Choose high pressure for 15 mins. When the instant pot beeps, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes. Then move the valve to venting to release the leftover pressure.
4. Open the Instant Pot and carefully lift the trivet with the pan, and take it out. The cheesecake batter should be set and not runny. Let it cool completely. Then spoon the mixture evenly in each phyllo shell. Add berry toppings. Serve and enjoy !
