1/3 cup Brown Swerve
1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
Pinch of Salt
1/3 cup melted butter
1 Egg
Filling:
1/3 Cup Sour Cream
2 8 oz Blocks of Full Fat Cream Cheese
1 8 oz Container Mascarpone Cheese (Can substitute for with another block of cream cheese)
3/4 Cup Powdered Swerve
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1/4 tsp xanthan gum (optional)
1/3 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice (optional)
Zest of 1 Lemon (optional)
2 Eggs
2 Egg Yolks
Recipe
1. Two hours before starting, get all your ingredients to room temperature. Alternatively, if short on time, microwave cream cheese for 30 seconds on low power and soak eggs in hot tap water for 3 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 350.
3. Prepare spring-form pan by brushing it's base and sides with melted butter and laying a round of parchment paper on top (see video for how to easily round parchment paper).
4. Combine dry ingredients and wet ingredients in separate bowls. Mix them together.
5. Spread crust mix into prepared spring-form pan using a rubber spatula and tamp down with a glass spritzed with cooking spray to even out crust.
6. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden, then transfer to freezer for two minutes to cool down before adding cheesecake batter.
7. Add Sour Cream to large bowl and beat to lubricate beaters and bowl.
8. Add in Cream Cheeses and Sweetener. Beat until just mixed.
9. Add in Vanilla, Xanthan Gum, Heavy Cream, Lemon Juice, Lemon Zest and beat just until mixed. Taste for sweetness before adding eggs and adjust accordingly.
10. Whisk eggs and yolks separately, then gradually add them 1/4 at a time into the batter as you whisk.
11. Wrap now cool spring-form pan in two layers of heavy duty, wide aluminium foil. (optionally line first with a crock-pot liner or cling film to ensure no leaks)
12. Pour batter into crust and smooth with rubber spatula.
13. Put spring-form pan into roasting pan and fill with ~2 quarts 200 degree water until it comes half way up the sides of the protected spring-form pan.
14. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes, until the edges of the cheesecake seem set but the center is still jiggly.
15. When the cheesecake seems ready, turn off oven and prop open door with a wooden spoon, waiting 1 hour before removing cheesecake.
16. Cover the top of the spring-form pan with foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours but preferably overnight before serving.
17. To cut the cheesecake, wet a knife in hot water and wipe clean between cuts.
18. Garnish with whipped cream, a blackberry and a slice of lemon.
19. Enjoy!
