Cheesecake. Berries. Lime. Need I say more?

- Stevia to taste (I used Nirvana Organics Brand)
- 2 Tbsp. coconut flour
- ½ tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 100gms melted butter
Method:
- Preheat oven to 180C.
- Place all base ingredients in a bowl and mix until well combined.
- Press into a greased/lined tin.
- Bake for 8-10mins until golden.
- Then set aside to cool and increase oven to 250°C.
Thermomix Method:
- Add all ingredients to TM bowl (butter doesn’t have to be melted)
- Blitz until butter is mixed through dry ingredients
- Mix for 5 minutes at 90C on speed 2. (to melt and combine butter)
- Give a final blitz up to speed 5 at the end.
Filling Ingredients:
- 250gms softened cream cheese
- 1/3 cup full fat sour cream
- 3 organic eggs
- Juice and zest of 2 limes
- Stevia or rice malt syrup/sweetener of your choice
Method:
- Beat together until fluffy (with a spoon or with your blender/Thermomix)
Put it Together:
- Pour filling over cooked base.
- Add 200gms of mixed berries to the top and press gently into mixture if they don sink. (fresh or frozen is fine).
- Place the cheesecake into the oven and turn the oven down to 100°C straight away.
- This temperature drop allows even cooking and create a lovely texture.
