Ingredients:
– 2 cups almond flour
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1/4 cup erythritol (or your preferred sugar substitute)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup erythritol (or your preferred sugar substitute)
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 4 large eggs
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
– 1/2 cup fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and almond extract (if using) until stiff peaks form.
5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
6. Pour the mixture over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and let the cake sit inside for an additional 10 minutes. Then, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, for the best results.
8. Before serving, garnish with fresh berries, if desired.
