Crustless Vanilla Cheesecake image

I came up with this recipe when I had quite some dairy products to use up and was craving cheesecake. I didnt want this to be a diet-breaker, though, so I tried to reduce the amount of fat, sugar and flour used. The result was creamy yet firm with a lovely vanilla taste to it. I hope youll enjoy it, too!

Time 2h25m

Yield 1 10 inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar substitute (I used erythritol)
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
750 g low-fat Quark (or use a low-fat ricotta)
250 g low-fat yogurt (I used 0.3%)
1 tablespoon psyllium husks, ground (you might try it with flax seeds, but I cant vouch for that)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl beat eggs with sugar and vanilla bean paste for 7 minutes with your electric mixer. It should be a very frothy, thick mixture after that.
  • Beat in the remaining ingredients in the order listed.
  • Pour into a greased springform pan (26 cm/10 inches in diameter) and bake in the preheated oven at 160°C/320°F for 1 hour and 45 minutes or until centre is no longer jiggly. Check after 50 minutes or so and cover if it gets too dark.
  • Turn off oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the oven door slightly ajar (I stick a wooden spoon in there to keep it open) for 30 minutes.
  • Allow to cool completely and then carefully remove from the pan.
