Introduction
I am experimenting to come up with the perfect healthy cheesecake. This one is good, but I think a little more sugar, and another egg will make it even better.

Ingredients
-
Crust:
1 heaping cup almond flour
4 tbsp I can't believe it's not butter for baking
1/3 cup muscovado sugar
1/4 tsp pure almond extract
dash of allspice
Filling:
32 oz. nonfat plain yogurt strained overnight through a cheesecloth (see SP recipe for Yogurt cheese)
3 tbsp muscovado sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp pure almond extract
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Directions
CRUST first:
Combine almond flour (meal) in a bowl with 1/3 c. brown sugar and a dash of allspice. Melt 4 tbsp. of ICBINB in a cup and combine with the 1/4 tsp. almond extract. Then mix with the almond flour to form a sticky dough. Press into bottom of a 7" springform pan and bake at 350 for 10 minutes.
FILLING:
Combine the strained yogurt (which should be almost the consistency of cream cheese) with 3 tbsp muscovado sugar and 1 tsp pure almond extract. Sprinkle and combine in the cornstarch. Lightly beat 2 eggs and then add to the mix and beat until blended. Pour onto cooled crust and bake 45-50 minutes at 325 degrees. Cool slightly then refrigerate. I added sliced almonds to the top for decoration.
