  • 2 cups finely ground blanched almond flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated erythritol, for crust
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 16 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated erythritol, for filling
  • 2 medium ripe bananas about 3/4 cup mashed
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F and grease a 9-inch springform pan .
  2. For the crust, mix almond flour, melted butter, 2 tablespoons granulated erythritol and salt until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool.
  4. For the filling: Beat 16 oz of softened cream cheese with ½ cup of erythritol until smooth and fluffy.
  5. Beat in the mashed bananas, then the three eggs one at a time on low speed, just until incorporated.
  6. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon of almond extract, and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Mix until completely smooth.
  7. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  8. Bake 45-55 minutes, until edges are set and the center reaches 160°F with a small gentle wobble.
  9. Turn the oven off, crack the door and leave for 30 minutes.
  10. Cool on a rack for 30 minutes, then refrigerate, loosely covered, for at least 4 hours; cover fully once cold. Refrigerate within 2 hours of cooking.
  11. Run a knife around the edges before releasing the springform pan. Slice and serve chilled.
