Lemon Cheesecake : Low Carb : Sugar Free : Gluten Free


I am sharing one of Libby's at 'Ditch The Carbs' site recipes. It is for her sugar-free no-bake lemon cheesecake, a lovely low-carb dessert, which is easy to make and healthy to eat, just 3g net carbs per serving!

Ingredients
Cheesecake Base
2 tsp granulated sweetener of choice or more, to your taste
150 g almond meal/flour
55 g butter melted
50 g desiccated/shredded coconut unsweetened
Lemon Cheesecake Filling
12 g powdered gelatine
2 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice or more, to your taste
200 ml boiling water
200 ml cold water
500 g cream cheese full fat (not the 'spreadable' variety)
4 tbsp lemon zest
2 tbsp lemon juice

Recipe Instructions and Video Guide

If you are just starting a low carb diet/lifestyle you may feel confused with which low carb flours to use. You may never have used any of them before and how to use them properly can be daunting. Low carb flours do not behave like wheat flour, and how to use them in your old regular high carb recipes is a common question. Of course you may also be interested, or want to know more about them. If that is the case then Libby at 'Ditch The Carbs' site has a very good guide, why not read it! Find it here

a cup of tea, or coffee if you'd prefer,
with a slice of cheesecake is so nice!

We bring a variety of recipe ideas to this blog, and not all may be suitable for you. If you may have any food allergies, or underlying health issues these must always be taken into account. If you are a diabetic and not sure how certain foods may affect your blood sugars, test is best, i.e. use your meter.

All the best Jan

  26. You need to join Bleubeard and Elizabeth's T day link up with post. Oh that cheesecake looks fabulous. I can do gluten so I would replace the almond meal with graham crackers or something like that-no almonds for me. Allergies. Happy new week!
