🥘Ingredients
This recipe has three parts- the crust, the filling and the blueberry swirl.
Almond Flour Crust
- 6 tbsp butter melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups almond flour
- ½ cup allulose
Cheesecake Filling
- 16 ounces cream cheese full fat – room temp/softened
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp Lemon Zest
- ½ cup Allulose
- 2 tbsp lemon juice fresh juice – none of that bottled stuff.
Fresh Blueberry Swirl
- ½ cup blueberries fresh or frozen
- 1 tablespoon granulated Allulose
👩🏿🍳How to make the Cheesecake Bars:
The Crust – make this first
- Preheat the oven to 350° F and line an 8×8 inch or similar sized pan with parchment paper.
Make sure the parchment is hanging over the sides so that it’s easy to lift the finished product out later.
- Combine the melted butter, almond flour, allulose and lemon zest in a medium sized bowl and mix well.
- Transfer the crust dough to a 8 x 8 or similar pan lined with parchment paper. Don’t skip the parchment paper.
- Press the crust firmly with the back of a spoon into the bottom of the pan.
- Bake the crust for 7 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Lemonade Cheesecake Bars Filling
- Combine the cream cheese, eggs, sweetener, extract and zest in a medium sized bowl and mix until smooth.
- Pour over the baked crust and smooth out if needed. If the cream cheese is mixed it’ll be pretty soft.
Fresh Blueberry Swirl
If you are using firm, fresh berries they will stay chunky and this is normal and totally fine. They will bake up perfectly.
- Dollop by the spoonful over the top of the lemon cheesecake mixture.
- Gently swirl through the dollops of blueberry with a butter knife to distribute.
- Bake the cheesecake bars at 350° F for 25 – 30 minutes, or until set.
- Remove from the oven and cool.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, preferably longer before cutting into four by four rows of square bars and serve immediately. Store covered in the fridge for 4-5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
