How to Make Healthy 6 Cheesecake Made With Cottage Cheese Low Carb

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 6-inch springform pan.
  2. In a food processor or blender, combine cottage cheese, cream cheese, sweetener, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly.
  5. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for another 30 minutes. This prevents cracking.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before refrigerating for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to set completely.
  7. Once chilled, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and serve. Garnish as desired (optional).
