Step 1

Grease a 7" springform pan well. Place the trivet on the bottom of the Instant Pot and add 1 cup of water.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Stir in 4 ounces of the grated cheese and 2 cloves of minced garlic.

Step 3

Add the eggs, 4 tablespoons of the butter, and the water and stir until well combined. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

Step 4

Tightly cover the top and the bottom of the pan with foil to reduce excess moisture seeping in during cooking. Place the pan in the Instant Pot. Close the lid and seal the vent. Set on the "cake" setting for 40 minutes (or on manual high for 40 minutes).

Step 5

When cooking is complete, let the pressure reduce naturally for 15 minutes, then open the vent to allow any additional steam to release. Remove the pan carefully and remove the foil.

Step 6

Preheat the broiler to high and set an oven rack in the middle position. Mix the remaining half tablespoon of butter with the remaining minced garlic and brush over the top of the bread. Sprinkle with the remaining ounce of grated cheese.

Step 7

Broil the bread until the cheese is melted and the top is golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and let cool at least 15 minutes, then run a sharp knife around the inside of the pan and release the sides before slicing and serving.
