Ingredients
For the Crust
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 2 Tablespoons Swerve brown sugar substitute
- 5 Tablespoons melted butter
For the Cheesecake Filling
- 16 ounce cottage cheese small curd, full fat
- ½ cup Greek yogurt plain
- ½ cup Swerve Confectioners Sugar Substitute
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 eggs Large
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180C).
Bake Crust
- Mix together the crust ingredients in a mixing bowl, and press the crust into the bottom of 8 inch springform pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven.
Cheesecake Filling
- Place the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, sweetener, eggs and vanilla extract into a blender or food processor, and pulse until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the filling mixture over the crust in the springform pan.
Bake the Cheesecake
- Bake the cheesecake for 45-55 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and set, and the center is still just very slightly jiggly.
Cool the Cheesecake
- Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature, and then carefully remove the ring from the springform pan.
- Chill the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving.
- Top with whipped cream, fresh fruit or a fruit glaze.
Notes
- Before you store the cheesecake in the fridge to set up, make sure that it is completely cool so that condensation doesn't build up.
- For an ultra-smooth cheesecake filling, make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This helps everything blend together seamlessly without lumps.
- Be sure to use confectioner's sugar-free version of sweetener to avoid a gritty texture.
- Avoid over mixing the batter, as incorporating too much air can cause cracks during baking.
- To prevent the cheesecake from sticking to the pan, lightly grease the sides and use parchment paper for easier removal.
