Description
A delicious summer dessert: low FODMAP passion fruit cheesecake in a glass! Made with gluten-free digestives and homemade passion fruit curd. Gluten-free and lactose-arm.
Ingredients
- 8 gluten-free digestives or another similar cookie + 2 cookies for garnish
- 200 g (7 oz) lactose-free cream cheese
- 50 g (1/4 cup) sugar
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) lactose-free whipping cream (make sure it is cooled well)
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 4 small glasses (I use these)
For the passion fruit curd
- 125 g (4.4 oz) passion fruit pulp (fresh or frozen, defrost before using)
- 125 g (2/3 cup) sugar
- 100 g (1/2 cup) butter, at room temperature
- 3 egg yolks
Instructions
- Crumble the 8 digestives and divide them over four glasses*
- Mix the cream cheese with the sugar and lemon juice in a bowl.
- Whip up the whipping cream in another bowl.
- Carefully fold the whipping cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Divide the cream cheese mixture over the glasses and put in the fridge for at least 2 hours to set. You can also leave them overnight.
The passion fruit curd
- Put the passion fruit pulp, sugar and butter together in a pan. Heat on low heat until the sugar and butter have melted. Stir regularly.
- Whip the egg yolks in a separate bowl.
- Carefully pour the passion fruit mixture into the bowl with the yolks, little by little, while you stir continuously.
- If you have stirred everything through, you can pour the mixture back into the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil on low heat. Leave to boil for a few minutes until the curd thickens. Keep stirring regularly. Turn the heat off and pour the passion fruit curd into a jar. Leave to cool down completely.
- Scoop a tablespoon of passion fruit curd on top of each mini cheesecake right before serving. Crumble the two digestives on top of the mini cheesecakes.
Notes
*If you want the crust to be a bit less crumbly, you can mix the cookie crumbs with 30 gram melted butter. This will allow you to press the crust into the glasses and form a more fixed crust. I like having just crumbles because you often mix them with the cream cheese mixture anyway when you eat, but it is just what you prefer.
