Directions

Preheat oven to 450F.

In a medium bowl, using the handmixer, whisk the 35% cream into stiff peaks.

In a large bowl, using a handmixer, whisk together the cream cheese, almond flour, eggs, monkfruit and vanilla extract. Then, gently fold in the whipped cream.

Transfer the cheesecake batter to a parchment lined or silicone loaf pan.

Bake for 30 min, switching to broil for the last 2-3 min to “burn” the top of the cheesecake.

Remove from the oven, then allow to cool 15 min.

Refrigerate at least 2 hours before lifting out the cheesecake using the parchment or gently unmolding from the silicone loaf pan.
