Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated erythritol
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.75 cups Granulated erythritol (for filling)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 cup Fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free berry jam
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of granulated erythritol. Mix well until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the almond flour mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup of granulated erythritol with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the cream cheese mixture one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
In a small bowl, gently mix the fresh mixed berries with the sugar-free berry jam. Spoon small dollops of the berry mixture onto the surface of the cheesecake filling, then use a knife or toothpick to swirl it gently for a marbled effect.
Step 8
Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Step 9
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature in the pan. Then, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled and firm.
Step 10
Lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 16 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
