Easy Mini Cheesecakes

20

We couldn’t believe how delicious these mini cheesecakes turned out. For the time and effort put in you get an amazing dessert. You can top them with whatever you have on hand. In addition to chocolate, fruit like raspberries works or fruit preserves.

These are not only super delicious but they’re also a healthy dessert option. I’m using almond flour for the base crust and you can use any neutral oil in place of the olive like melted coconut oil or avocado oil.

These last for 5 days in your fridge in a covered and sealed air tight container. You can reach for these low carb bites instead of slicing an entire piece of high sugar and high carb cheesecake and you still get all the flavors and yumminess.

Beat until smooth and incorporated – about 1 minute. Transfer evenly to each muffin slot and bake for 20 minutes or until edges are set. Remove pan from the oven and let them sit in the tray for another 30 minutes. Remove them from the tray and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
