I was going to post this on my blog but am waiting to make it again and get a good pic.

For now, have to share this...for the sweet tooth but without added sugars.
This cheesecake rocks.

A little different to the usual high protein cheesecake :)

Pear & Date Cheesecake

Serves
2 - 4

Ingredients
500g low fat cottage cheese (1% - I use Elgaar Farm Organics...awesome)
50g almond meal (or whole almonds)
2 eggs
2 - 3 medjool dates
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla or cinnamon (optional)
200g peeled and diced pear (or 200g 100% pear puree babyfood)

Directions
Preheat the oven to 150C. Grease and line an 18 - 20cm springform tin.
I like to line the base with silicone baking paper...makes it easy to remove the cheesecake as it has no crust.
Place all ingredients in a food processor. Prepare the pear last to avoid it browning.
Whizz until smooth. Pour into the prepared tin.
Bake for 45 - 60 mins until a little risen and golden on top.
Let sit in the switched off oven for 20 mins with the door ajar - so it starts to cool slowly and won't fall and crack.
Remove and let cool. Cover and place in the refrigerator for several hours of overnight before turning out to serve.
I sprinkled on some extra cinnamon and a few slices of fresh pears.

Really light and fruity sweet and creamy!

Pic and macros attached :)
