While I was on the job, I remembered that I also have ground flax seeds at home. So why not try a cheesecake with them too. So I made my usual cheesecake with a little twist by adding flax seeds on its crust. The Keto Flax Cheesecake tastes good, not out of the world. But when you think that it is loaded with good proteins, you don’t mind the slightly bitter aftertaste.
Before I come to the recipe, I must share with you that in the absence of ready-made cream cheese, I used hung curd and fresh cottage cheese as a substitute. I simply got a litre of full cream milk, made about 200 gm of cottage cheese from it. On the other hand, I always have hung curd or greek yogurt in my fridge, so I used 100 gm of that.

I’m a big fan of cheesecake. I’ll sometimes use half and half cottage chese and cream cheese.

There’s a lot of dairy in here that I can’t have, but have you ever tried making cheesecake out of cashews? It’s great!

That’s an idea. Will try. But I’m on Keto cashews are high carb.
