Blueberry Cheesecake

Blueberry cheesecake. In my opinion, the best cake so far. The recipe is extremely simple, it doesn’t contain any flour and instead of sugar I used homemade honey. Even my boyfriend admitted (and he loves cakes!) that this is the best cake he has ever had. (Unfortunately, I don’t have any picture of the whole cake, I ate one piece only 10 minutes after I took it out of the oven…) 

Borovničeva skutina tortica. Po mojem mnenju najboljša tortica do sedaj. Recept je izjemno enostaven, ne vsebuje nobene moke, namesto sladkorja pa ima domač med. Tudi moj fant je priznal, da je to zanj (pa ima rad tortice!) najboljša tortica do sedaj. (Žal nimam slike cele tortice, ker sem en košček pojedla 10 minut po tem, ko sem jo vzela iz pečice …)

Crust:

2 cups ground almonds  ♥  1/2 cup coconut flour  ♥  40 g of butter  ♥  two tbsp honey

Filling:

500 g cottage cheese  ♥  1 cup sour cream  ♥  2 eggs  ♥  2 big tbsp honey   ♥  1 banana

Blueberry sauce:

1 cup frozen or fresh blueberries  ♥  1 tsp honey

 

Testo:

dva lončka mletih mandljev  ♥  pol lončka kokosove moke  ♥  40 g masla  ♥  dve žlici medu

Nadev:

500 g skute  ♥  lonček kisle smetane  ♥  dve jajci  ♥  dve veliki žlici medu  ♥  ena banana

Borovničeva glazura:

lonček zmrznjenih ali svežih borovnic  ♥  žlička medu

Crust: We mix the almonds, coconut flour and butter in the same bowl. Then melt the honey with a little bit of hot water. Mix the honey with the rest of the ingredients and spread it on the baking pan for cakes, covered with parchment paper. 

Filling: Mix all the ingredients with a hand blender. Then pour the mixture on the crust in the baking pan.

Blueberry sauce: Cook the blueberries with a spoon of honey for 10 minutes. When a little bit of water evaporates, we blend them with a hand blender until it looks like a jam. If you do not have any blueberries, you can do the sauce in the same way with a different type of fruit. After all, you can use a jam (preferably homemade). We leave the blueberries to cool down for a few minutes.

Testo: V posodo stresemo mandlje, kokosovo moko in maslo. Med zmešamo z nekaj žlicami vroče vode, da postane tekoč. Nato kar z rokami vse sestavine zmešamo skupaj in razporedimo po okroglem pekaču za tortico, ki smo ga prekrili s peki papirjem.

Nadev: Vse sestavine stresemo v posodo in zmešamo s paličnim mešalnikom. Nato zmes prelijemo čez testo v pekaču.

Borovničeva glazura: Borovnice z žlico medu kuhamo  10 minut. Ko malo vode izhlapi, jih zmešamo s paličnim mešalnikom, da postanejo podobne marmeladi. Če borovnic nimate, lahko to napravite s katero koli vrsto sadja, navsezadnje pa lahko uporabite tudi (najraje domačo) marmelado. Zmiksane borovnice nekaj minut pustimo, da se malo ohladijo.

Then we take one spoon of the blueberry sauce and pour it into the middle of the cheesecake. Form the same circles with the rest of the sauce on other parts of the cake. Take a thin knife and start creating: form circles or straight lines through the cake and the sauce. For example, I really like that the circles are connected one to another. 

Bake the cheesecake for approx. 50 minutes on 170/180 °C. When it is done, leave it to cool a little bit and then put it in the fridge for at least four hours or overnight. Cut veeery big pieces and sprinkle with coconut. Bon appétit! :)

Nato zajamemo žlico borovničeve glazure in jo zlijemo na sredino. Ostalo maso po žlicah razporedimo po tortici. Nato vzamemo tanek nož in pričnemo ustvarjati: po borovničevi glazuri in skutinem nadevu delamo kroge, ravne črte … Meni je všeč, da se borovničevi krogci med seboj povezujejo.

Skutino tortico pečemo na 170/180 °C približno 50 minut. Ko je pečena, jo malo ohladimo in v hladilnik postavimo za vsaj štiri ure ali čez noč. Narežemo reees velike kose in posujemo s kokosom. Dober tek! :)
