This Carnivore Cheesecake is the perfect treat. Made with only animal-based ingredients, this rich and creamy dessert is low in carbs and free from plant-based additives.
Ingredients:
- 16 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional, if tolerated)
- 2 tbsp beef gelatin (for firmness)
- 2 tbsp raw honey (optional, for slight sweetness)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a small springform pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition.
- Incorporate Liquids: Slowly mix in the melted butter, heavy cream, vanilla extract (if using), and a pinch of salt.
- Add Gelatin: In a small bowl, dissolve the beef gelatin in 2 tbsp of warm water. Stir well to prevent clumping, then add to the cheesecake batter.
- Sweeten (Optional): If using honey, fold it into the mixture at this stage.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the center is slightly firm but still jiggly.
- Cool and Chill: Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature for 15 minutes before transferring to the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve chilled. Optionally, top with whipped cream or extra butter for a richer experience.
