Two Bite Keto Vanilla Bean Collagen Cheeseecakes

Everyone has that one recipe that need no introduction - and for me, this is that recipe.These Cheesecakes are just sweet enough and pack an incredible amount of rich flavour. They are super easy, store well, can be topped with anything, and the macros are amazing.


Two Bite Keto Vanilla Bean Collagen Cheeseecakes
Crust:
  • 2 TBSP Grass Fed Butter 
  • 1/2 cup organic almond flour (or meal, but I prefer flour) 
Filling:
  • 250g Room Temperature Cream Cheese (1 block) 
  • 1 large egg 
  • 1/2 tsp. organic vanilla bean powder (optional) 
  • 1/2 tsp. real vanilla 
  • 1/4 cup Confectioners Swerve 
  • 1 TBSP Enhanced Collagen (Organika)
Topping: (for my Keto Bake Exchange I used my favourite Earl Grey Infused Fresh Whipped Cream)
  • 1 Earl Grey Tea Bag (I use Stash Double Bergamot)
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream 
  • Swerve Confectioners to sweeten if desired 


Instructions:
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees 
  2. Add butter to a small heavy bottomed pot on low
  3. Once fully melted remove from heat and add the almond flour/meal 
  4. Mix thoroughly until completely combined 
  5. Put in fridge for a couple minutes to make it easier to form into muffin liners (optional)
  6.  Press into prepared mini muffin tins (3.5 grams each for 24 units) 
  7. Bake for 5 minutes until just starting to turn golden 
  8. While waiting mix filling - mix the cream cheese with a hand blender before adding any other ingredients to ensure a rich creamy texture, mix in all ingredients and blend being sure to leave no lumps behind and make sure everything it totally incorporated 
  9. Spoon filling (approximately 1 TBSP) into each muffin liner and bake for another 11 minutes, cakes will be slightly jiggly when they come out and will deflate slightly 
  10. Allow to cool in fridge if possible but if you need them in a rush place in the freezer until fully set 
  11. Top as you wish and store in the fridge for up to 3 days  
Earl Grey Infused Whipped Cream
  • Steep Earl Grey (loose, or empty tea bag) in the Heavy Whipping Cream for 24-48 hours stirring occasionally. Strain through fine mesh strainer to get out as much tea as possible. Mix with a hand mixer or kitchen mixer until fluffy, add desired amount of sweetener (I use very little if at all) and mix quickly. Add to two bite cheesecake for extra decadence 
I always recommend calculating your own macros but mine for the baking exchange worked out (without topping) to:  40 calories, 3.28g fat, 1.1g net carbs, 1.1g protein. If you top with 1 TSP whipped cream it would add: 7 calories and less than 1/2g net carb per cheesecake

ENJOY!
