Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Swerve Confectioners
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 7 drops liquid stevia
Filling:
- 2 8 oz blocks full-fat cream cheese, slightly softened
- 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup Swerve Confectioners
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon stevia glycerite
Topping:
- 2 cups frozen strawberries (unthawed)
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol
- 7 drops liquid stevia
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Other:
- Coconut oil spray for the pan
Instructions
- Line the bottom of a 7-inch springform pan with parchment paper that has been trimmed to fit; lightly spray the inside of the cake pan with coconut oil.
- For the crust, use a fork to combine the almond flour, Swerve Confectioners, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Add the melted butter and liquid stevia and mix until crumbly. Press this mixture into the bottom and about 1 1/2 inches up the sides of the prepared pan.
- For the filling, use a stand mixer or a handheld electric mixer to beat together all ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the filling into the crust.
- Place a metal trivet into the inner chamber of pressure cooker. Add 1 1/2 cups water.
- Cover the cheesecake with aluminum foil (to prevent condensation from dripping in), and place it on top of the trivet.
- Turn the pot on Manual, High Pressure for 34 minutes and then do a natural release for 25 minutes.
- Carefully turn the valve to “vent” to release any remaining pressure before opening.
- Use potholders to carefully remove the cheesecake and uncover it. Use a paper towel to blot any moisture on top.
- Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature and then refrigerate 4 hours before serving.
- While the cheesecake cooks, make the topping. For the strawberry topping, combine the strawberries, erythritol, liquid stevia, and salt in a medium saucepan.
- Cover the saucepan and cook (covered) on the stovetop over medium heat for 10 minutes.
- Use a fork or potato masher to carefully mash the berries, and continue cooking (uncovered) until the sauce is thickened to your desired consistency, about 2 to 5 minutes more, stirring frequently.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract. Cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate to chill.
- Serve each slice of cheesecake with a spoonful of strawberry topping.
