Ingredients
BASE
- 1.25 cups Almond flour
- ¼ cups Coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons Erythritol or low carb sweetener
- 5 tablespoons Butter, melted unsalted
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
CHEESECAKE
- 16 oz Cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup Erythritol or low carb sweetener
- 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 3 Eggs
- 1 cup Coconut cream
- ½ cup Cream Whipping/Heavy
Instructions
BASE
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
- Cover the bottom of an 8- inch cake tin with silver foil, ensuring that it comes up to the sides too. You don’t want any water to get into the tin when baking it! (I used a square tin but you could use a circular one).
- In a bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, butter, erythritol and salt together until blended. Almost like breadcrumbs.
- Press this mixture down into the cake tin. Smooth out evenly and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
- Cool and place in the fridge.
CHEESECAKE
- Beat the cream cheese in a bowl using an electric mixer or whisk until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the erythritol and beat until smooth.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, making sure the mixture is smooth.
- Add the vanilla, salt, coconut cream and heavy cream. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the cake tin on top of the base.
- Place the cake tin into a large baking pan and fill with hot water so it comes up to about ⅔rds of the side of the cake tin.
- Bake for an hour and 20 minutes until the cheesecake is firm to the touch.
- Cool in the oven with the door slightly open to avoid cracking. Then chill overnight (will power IS required here!)
- Remove from the tin, decorate, eat and enjoy!
