A Cheesecake Recipe You Can Enjoy Even If You’re Keto

A Cheesecake Recipe You Can Enjoy Even If You’re Keto

INGREDIENTS:

For the Crust
1 cup macadamia nuts
1 cup blanched almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
3 Tbsp coconut oil or butter, melted
Pinch sea salt

For the Filling
1 lemon
3 8-oz packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered erythritol
1 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
1 8-oz carton sour cream
1/2 cup fresh blueberries and/or raspberries and/or 2 Tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut, toasted (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. For the crust: In a food processor, coarsely chop macadamia nuts. Add almond flour, coconut oil, and salt. Pulse just until combined (mixture may clump up). Transfer nut mixture to a 9-inch springform pan, and press firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges start to turn golden brown. Cool.
  3. For the filling: Meanwhile, zest and juice lemon. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, the erythritol, and vanilla; beat well. Add eggs and 1/4 cup of the sour cream; beat on low just until smooth (do not overbeat). Stir in 2 teaspoons lemon zest; reserve 1 teaspoon zest for topping.
  4. Pour filling into crust-lined pan. Place pan on a baking sheet in the oven. Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until center is almost set (still a little jiggly) when gently shaken.
  5. Cool in pan on a wire rack until completely cool, about 1 hour. Run a knife around edges of the pan, and loosen cheesecake from the sides of the pan. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  6. For the topping, stir reserved 1 teaspoon zest into remaining sour cream; cover and refrigerate.
  7. To serve, remove cheesecake from pan. Spread top with sour cream mixture. If desired, top with berries and/or toasted coconut.
  8. For a sweeter topping, stir 1 tsp each vanilla and erythritol into the sour cream mixture before spreading on top of cheesecake.

Keto eggs Benedict on avocado

Keto eggs Benedict on avocado

Ingredients:

Hollandaise:

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8½ tbsp unsalted butter

Eggs benedict:

  • 2 avocados, pitted and skinned
  • 4 eggs
  • 5 oz. smoked salmon

Instructions:

  1. Take a large-mouthed mason jar, or any microwave-safe container that your immersion blender will comfortably fit inside. Place the butter in the container and then melt it in the microwave, about 20 seconds.
  2. Add the egg yolks and lemon juice into the butter. Place the hand blender at the bottom of the jar and blend until a white creamy layer is formed. Then slowly lift and lower the blender to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Place a saucepan with water on the stove and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low.
  4. Crack your eggs into a measuring cup, one at a time, and then gently slide each into the water. Stirring the water in a circle to create a small vortex will prevent the egg white from dispersing too far from the yolk. Cook for 3-4 minutes, depending on your preference for yolk consistency. Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to absorb excess water.
  5. Cut the avocados in half and remove the stones and skin. Make a slice across the base of each half so it will sit evenly on the plate. Top each half with an egg, and top with a generous dollop of hollandaise sauce. Place some smoked salmon on the plate.
  6. This dish needs to be eaten straight away and does not keep or reheat. Leftover hollandaise sauce can be stored in a jar in the fridge for up to 4 days.
