Creamy Dreamy Lemon Cheesecake

Creamy (Dreamy) Lemon Cheesecake

A Special Ginny Creation

It’s gluten-free! 

And depending on which crust you use, one of them is sugar-free! 

The first step in the directions is to make the pie crust you desire.

Have I mentioned how much I love lemon?  I do.  Very much!

Below is the recipe for my latest creation.  Since I’ve made this only once, there are some things to consider.  First time and it was a huge  success!  Yeah, I got lucky! 
         See photo to the right ---->

However, next time I’m going to make a couple small changes to see if I may be able to improve it. 

While I don't believe in fixing something that isn't broken, I think a couple tiny changes will make it even yummier!   

This first time, I used the Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free crust – which, by the way, is AMAZINGLY LIGHT FLUFFY and VERY TASTY!  However, the mix contains 2 grams of sugar per serving.  This is a very small amount, but anywhere you are able to eliminate sugar, the better, especially if medically necessary.  Keep in mind that if you are consuming other products that include sugar, it all adds up!  Sugar is hiding where you may not expect it, and often disguised by a different name.

The first change I will make the next time I make this dreamy dessert, is to use the Healthy Almond Pie Crust, which is also gluten-free, and sugar-free.  The Healthy Almond Pie Crust is the one I’ve previously used for my Healthy Pumpkin Pie recipe, and for my Healthy Quiche recipes. 

I’ll be making a switcheroo with the crust for the Quiche next time, too. 
I’m certain the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free crust will be heavenly, paired with my quiche recipe! 

So, it’s been established that I love lemon! 

Although 4 Tablespoons of fresh-squeezed lemon juice in this recipe, was perfect FOR ME, it might be too much for some taste buds. 

So the next change I will make is to decrease the amount of lemon juice to 2 or 3 Tablespoons. 

And, I will also add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. 

That's it!  Just those three little changes!

1. Use Healthy Almond Pie Crust
2. Decrease amount of Lemon Juice
3. Add Vanilla Extract

Of course, it can be made exactly the way I made it the first time, and it will still be delicious.

Either way..............

LIGHT

FLUFFY

YUMMY

CREAMY

and HEALTHY too!
