Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol or Stevia)
• 16 ounces Low-fat cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol or Stevia)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened, non-fat)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease the sides of the pan with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar substitute. Stir until the mixture resembles damp sand.

Step 3

Press the almond flour mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Add 3/4 cup of sugar substitute and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until well incorporated.

Step 6

On low speed, add the eggs one at a time, beating just until combined after each addition.

Step 7

Mix in the Greek yogurt and lemon juice until the batter is smooth and creamy, being careful not to overmix.

Step 8

Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust in the springform pan, spreading it into an even layer.

Step 9

Place the springform pan on a baking sheet and transfer it to the oven. Bake at 325°F (163°C) for 45-55 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle when the pan is gently shaken.

Step 10

Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool gradually. This helps prevent cracking.

Step 11

Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Then, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 12

Once chilled, carefully release the springform pan and slice the cheesecake into 10 even pieces. Serve and enjoy a guilt-free treat!
