Instructions
- Step 1.Preheat the oven to 175 C (350 F). Line the bottom of a 23 cm (9 inch) springform pan with parchment and grease the sides.
- Step 2.Stir together the almond flour, melted butter, 2 tbsp sweetener and 1 tsp vanilla until crumbly. Press firmly and evenly into the bottom of the pan.
- Step 3.Bake the crust for 10 to 12 minutes until just golden. Set aside to cool while you make the filling.
- Step 4.Beat the softened cream cheese and 1 1/4 cups powdered sweetener together on low speed until fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed.
- Step 5.Beat in the eggs one at a time on low speed just until incorporated; do not overmix or you will whip in air that causes cracks.
- Step 6.Mix in the lemon juice and 1 tsp vanilla until smooth.
- Step 7.Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
- Step 8.Bake for 40 to 55 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly when nudged.
- Step 9.Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
- Step 10.Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before releasing the springform and slicing into 16 pieces.
