I have fallen in love with my Instant Pot and use it for just about anything so you can imagine.  So when I learned you can make cheesecake in an electric pressure cooker, I knew that I had to try it as soon as possible.

Now that the holidays are approaching, it wasn’t long before it occurred to me to find an Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake Recipe. There are quite a few Instant Pot cheesecake recipes floating around but honestly this pumpkin cheesecake recipe is the best that I have tried.
