Ingredients

1 ¼ cups graham crackers crumbs
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, divided
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
3 large eggs, at room temperature
½ cup heavy cream, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
½ teaspoon almond extract
3 tablespoons strawberry jam
2 cups halved strawberries

Instructions

Add 1 1/2 cups water to a 6-qt Instant Pot®. Place metal trivet into the pot.
Lightly oil a 7-inch springform pan or coat with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon. Press crumb mixture onto the bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the sides of the pan; place in freezer.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, about 2 minutes. Beat in remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cornstarch. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Beat in heavy creamy, vanilla, lemon zest and almond extract.
Remove crust from freezer; pour cream cheese mixture into the prepared pan. Working carefully, gently place the prepared pan on top of the trivet.
Select manual setting; adjust pressure to high, and set time for 28 minutes. When finished cooking, release pressure naturally according to manufacturer’s directions, about 20-30 minutes.
Remove cheesecake and let cool on a wire rack for 1 hour; run a paring knife around the edges. Cover; place into the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
In a medium bowl, combine jam and 1 tablespoon water. Cover loosely and place into microwave for 30 seconds, or until melted and smooth. Stir in strawberries until evenly coated.
Remove cheesecake from pan; top with strawberry mixture.
Serve immediately.
