Instructions To Make Orange Cheesecake

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F and spray a 9″ springform pan with non stick spray, set aside. Zest your oranges and set aside.
  2. Prepare your crust first, whisk together your almond flour, coconut flour, salt, and sweetener. Add in your melted unsalted butter and mix together until a sticky dough forms, press your crust evenly in to the bottom of your prepared springform pan and set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl using a hand mixer, add your cream cheese and mix until smooth and creamy. Add in your sweetener and mix again until incorporated.
  4. Now add in your vanilla greek yogurt, vanilla extract, salt, orange juice and orange zest. Mix until all of your ingredients are well incorporated.
  5. With your mixer on low speed, add your eggs one at a time, add in your next egg when the previous one is just barely incorporated. You do not want to overmix your eggs.
  6. Pour your cheesecake batter in to your prepared springform pan. To ensure against leaks, place your springform pan on a cookie sheet that is lined with foil. Place your cheesecake in your preheated oven on the center rack and bake for 85-90 minutes. Do not overbake. Your edges should be just slightly puffed and perhaps have some browning. the center of your cheesecake should spring back to the touch and should jiggle like jello.
  7. Remove from your oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Once 10 minutes have passed, gently use a knife to loosen the side of your cheesecake from the springform pan, this will prevent any cracking as the cheesecake cools, because cheesecakes shrink as they cool.
  8. Allow your cheesecake to cool for 2 more hours at room temperature and then transfer to your refrigerator and allow it to cool for 6 hours or overnight. Cut into ten equal slices and enjoy!
