Ingredients: • Crust: • 1 cup almond flour • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil • 1 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener (or preferred sugar substitute) • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract • Filling: • 2 cups low-fat cottage cheese • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt • 1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener (or preferred sugar substitute) • 2 large eggs • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract • 1 tablespoon lemon juice • 2 tablespoons cornstarch • Topping: • 1 cup fresh blueberries • 1 tablespoon lemon juice • 1 tablespoon monk fruit sweetener (or preferred sugar substitute) Instructions: 1. Preheat Oven: • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan. 2. Prepare Crust: • In a medium bowl, mix the almond flour, melted coconut oil, monk fruit sweetener, and vanilla extract until well combined. • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form an even crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool. 3. Prepare Filling: • In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, monk fruit sweetener, eggs, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Blend until smooth and creamy. • Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and spread evenly. 4. Bake Cheesecake: • Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. • Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside the oven with the door slightly open for about an hour. This helps prevent cracks. 5. Prepare Topping: • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and monk fruit sweetener. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries release their juices and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. • Let the topping cool before spreading it over the cooled cheesecake. 6. Chill: • Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving. . 🫶🏼🫶🏼 Share 🫶🏼🫶🏼
