Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 6 ounces chocolate wafer cookies, crushed
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup almonds, toasted and finely chopped
- 1 cup blackberry compote (for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare your Instant Pot by placing the trivet inside and adding 1 cup of water. Lightly grease a 7-inch springform pan.
- In a food processor, crush chocolate wafer cookies and mix with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add coconut milk, flour, matcha powder, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed just until blended. Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top.
- Cover the pan tightly with foil and place it on the trivet inside the Instant Pot.
- Cook on High Pressure for 30 minutes, then allow a 10-minute natural release before removing the lid.
- Carefully remove the pan and uncover. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, top with blackberry compote and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
Notes
- Use room-temperature cream cheese and eggs for a smooth batter.
- Don’t overmix the filling after adding eggs to avoid cracks.
- Chill the cheesecake thoroughly before slicing for best texture.
