Mini Cheesecakes Recipe (grain-free, gluten-free)



Ingredients

For the crust:
1 1/4 cups (125 grams) blanched almond flour
1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar or raw sugar
pinch of salt
1 tablespoon lemon zest
3 tablespoons (42 grams) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

For the filling:
1 pound (450 grams) cream cheese
1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar or raw sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt
2 large eggs, room temperature

For decoration:
berries and powdered sugar, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line a muffin pan with 12 muffin liners.
  2. Prepare the crust. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together all the dry ingredients, then stir in the butter and mix until thoroughly combined.
  3. Divide the mixture between the liners (18 grams or 3 1/2 teaspoons of mixture per liner) and lightly press down with the bottom of a shot glass.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes or until very lightly browned. Remove from the oven and cool for at least 10 minutes while preparing the filling.
  5. Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the beater attachment, beat the cream cheese and sugar at medium speed until light and creamy. Add the vanilla and salt and beat until combined. Beat in the eggs on low, one at a time, and just until well incorporated. Do not over mix!
  6. Fill each liner about 2/3 full with the batter and bake for 10 minutes or until the centers of the cheesecakes don't jiggle when the pan is tapped. Open the oven door (at least 1 foot wide) and let the cheesecakes cool to room temperature - about 1 1/2 hours. For easiest removal, remove the paper liners now. They can also be removed after chilling, though a little more cheesecake may stick to the liners then.
  7. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Decorate with berries and dust with powdered sugar, if desired. Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
