Baked Mascarpone and Blueberry Dessert : LCHF Dessert

From an idea by Pascale Naessens, this sugar-free yet deliciously decadent low-carb dessert has only three ingredients, so simple and easy! 


Ingredients
Serves Two
9g carbs per serving
2 egg yolks
200 g (200 ml) mascarpone cheese
100 g (160 ml) fresh blueberries (strawberries, or raspberries could be used).
Instructions
can be seen here


Mascarpone originated in the Lombardy region of Northern Italy during the Renaissance. It is ivory-coloured, exceptionally smooth, and an easily spreadable fresh cream cheese. The flavour is milky and slightly sweet. The rich, buttery texture comes from the high butterfat content. Mascarpone generally comes in tubs, and it should remain refrigerated. Check the "use by" date on the package for storage time, but it's generally a week.

    It has been so long since I used Mascarpone cheese I had forgotten it! Time to reinvent the wheel and give it another turn at the table!

    This looks amazing but not sure if I can get lactose free Mascarpone? Or what I could sub with?

    Hello and thanks for your comment/question.

    I believe most supermarkets do offer a lactose free version of Mascarpone.
    However, I am not sure if it would work in the same way as in the the recipe shown here.
    If you should give it a try please come back and let me know.

    Many thanks

    All the best Jan
