Cheesecake.
- Make the crust as indicated above. Allow the crust to set in a refrigerator.
- In a saucepan on medium heat, combine the blueberries, sugar alternative, the room temperature water (two tablespoons), and the lemon juice. As this heats, use the back of a spoon or similar utensil to carefully crush the blueberries while the ingredients heat. Once the ingredients are combined and the water has boiled off, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow to cool while you work.

Tips for making the best blueberry cheesecake.
I am providing you with a simple sugar free crust recipe.
You can however, use your own crust or a store bought one instead.
More tips for you
- You can make the crust ahead of time and refrigerate it before adding the filling. The crust will need to set in the refrigerator which makes this a good idea if you are concerned about time.
- Yes, I am using blueberries. However, you can use another similar berry with or instead of the blueberries. I like raspberries, strawberries, or even blackberries.
- Heavy cream is used in this recipe. Alternatives to heavy cream include coconut milk and half and half.
How to store blueberry cheesecake.
ย
