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
 

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Heavy cream is used in this recipe. Alternatives to heavy cream include coconut milk and half and half.

How to make Sugar Free Blueberry 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.
• Next, in a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar alternative, and vanilla extract until creamy. Once the ingredients in the saucepan have fully cooked you can carefully fold them into this mixture using a rubber spatula.
• Now, combine together the cold water (three tablespoons) with the gelatin in a new saucepan that is not yet heated. Stir this with a fork and allow it to sit for one minute before placing this saucepan on medium heat allowing for the gelatin to fully dissolve before removing it from the heat. Allow this to sit for two minutes and then stir this into the ingredients in the mixing bowl until just combined.
• Lastly, in a new mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream into soft picks. Note: for the heavy cream to whip, it must be cold. Next, use a spatula to incorporate it into the cream cheese mixture.

How to put the cheesecake together.

 

• Remove the crust from the refrigerator.
• Evenly spread the ingredients from the mixing bowl over the crust.
• Place the cheesecake into the refrigerator to set (about four hours)
• When you are ready to serve the cheesecake, Place the topping ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat, without stirring, until it turns into a light jam. Add additional sweetener as desired. Then pour this over the cheesecake, slice, and serve.
