Instructions
Crust
Prepare the Pan: Cover the bottom with saran wrap and line the sides with the acetate cake collar of a 6-inch springform pan or mousse mold. ( of your choice, square or round pan )
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, rolled oats, shredded coconut, and a pinch of salt.
Add Wet Ingredients: Add the melted butter and honey (or maple syrup) to the dry ingredients. Mix until everything is well combined and the mixture holds together when pressed.
Form the Crust: Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed glass to help pack it down tightly.
Chill: Place the crust in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
Filling
Prepare Gelatin: In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/2 cup of cold water and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes to bloom.
Beat Cream Cheese: Beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.
Add Greek Yogurt and Sweetener: Add the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Beat until well combined and smooth.
Add whipping cream to the cheese mixer and whip until soft peak.
Incorporate Gelatin: Heat the gelatin in the microwave for 10 seconds and stir until completely dissolved. Add a little cheese mixer to the gelatin to cool slightly.
Gradually add the gelatin mixture to the cream cheese mixture, beating constantly to ensure it is well incorporated.
Take about 1 cup of cream cheese mixer out before adding blueberry jam.
Add blueberry jam or puree to the rest of the cream cheese mixer and mix until well combined.
Fill the Crust: Pour the blueberry cheesecake filling over the chilled crust and spread it evenly.
Chill
Set in Refrigerator: Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the filling is firm before adding plain cream cheese filling over blueberry filling.
(Add a little cream to the plain cheesecake if it's too thick.)
Set in Refrigerator: Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 5 to 6 hours or until the filling is firm. For best results, chill overnight.
Serve
Release from Pan: Once the cheesecake is set, carefully remove it from the springform pan.
Top and Garnish (Optional): If desired, top with extra fresh blueberries, lemon zest, and mint leaves.
Slice and Serve: Slice and enjoy your delicious no-bake blueberry cheesecake!
Notes
