Mason Jar Blueberry Cheesecake
This was the treat I created for my family as our Sunday night dessert. These little Mason Jar Blueberry Cheesecakes are a super simple recipe, that even the most amateur chef can re-create. They are of course a cleaner version of your typical cheesecake so there is no guilt required when indulging in these lovely creations.
They are a no bake, gluten free cheesecake that were a huge hit with my family and I, they will defiantly be made again!
I hope you like this quick dessert recipe and enjoy customizing it fit your taste buds.... I think a strawberry based version or even an Oreo based version would be delicious!
Ingredients:
Crust:
1 1/4 tbsp. honey
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 + 1/4 cup almond flour
Cheesecake Portion:
1/4 of a 250g container fat free cream cheese
1 cup 0% vanilla greek yogurt
1-2 tbsp. honey
2-3 tsp. stevia
1 tsp. vanilla
Blueberry Sauce:
approx. 4 cups frozen blueberries
1-2 tsp. of honey
1. Combine all crust ingredients together in a food processor. Once combined press into the bottom of four mason jars ( save some left over to sprinkle on top). Place in fridge for an hour or so.
2. Prepare cream cheese mixture by combing all ingredients in a bowl, mix well with electric beater. Taste as you go to ensure it is at your desired level of vanilla flavour and sweetness. Defrost 4 cups of blueberries in the microwave, mix with a couple teaspoons of honey.
3. In a frying pan toast the remaining crust, until it becomes a light brown. This will be used as a crumble topping.
4. Begin the layering process. Place a layer of cream cheese mixture on top of crust followed by a layer of blueberries, another small layer of cream cheese mixture then top with blueberries and some of the crumble.
