Lemon or Lime Cheesecake

Recipe taken from Breaking the Vicious Cycle by Elaine Gottschall. Photo mine.

Ingredients:
3 eggs-warm to room temp
1/3 c honey
1 c scd yogurt-dripped
2 c dry curd cottage cheese
2 tsp legal vanilla
lemon or lime juice (optional)***

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325*.
2. Bring ingredients up to room temp.
3. In a blender add eggs first for blades to turn freely. Then add the rest of the ingredients.
4. Mix well, stopping to scrap down sides every 15 seconds or so.
5. Grease sides of pan with butter or coconut oil so cheesecake will not stick.
6. Pour mixture in smaller pans, splitting up batter so as to not fill more then half way full. It will rise.
7. Bake for 40 mins or until tops turn a slight brown. Do not open oven during first 30 mins.
8. Take it out of oven and let it cool.
9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
10. Enjoy.

Notes: When I cooked mine I noticed the center was a little wiggly-that is perfectly fine and actually makes a nice smooth cheesecake in the center but if you overcook it, it becomes dry and crumbly.
After I let it cool, I noticed it was a little watery and just drained it.

***I actually used Young Living Lemon or Lime Essential Oil (only YL-others are not safe to ingest) to flavor it. I used 10 drops and it gave a good flavor-not too strong or weak. But do not eat the whole cheesecake in a few days because lemon is a detoxing oil and you will feel the detox effect if you eat too much of the cheesecake with the oil baked in it. :)
