Ingredients
- 1 prepared Graham Cracker Crust – I used kinnikinnick gf graham style crumbs.
- 2 lb container of ricotta cheese, drained 1 hour in cheesecloth over bowl (if you have the time)
- ½ cup of sugar
- 1/3 cup all purpose gluten free flour
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 lemons, juiced and zested
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
Line a 9″ springform pan with parchment paper and grease with butter, up the sides as well.
Add ricotta to cheesecloth lined colander set over bowl, let drain up to 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees, set rack in lower third of oven.
Add drained ricotta to mixer, beat on med for 3 mins, it will become nice and fluffy.
Now add the sugar, then flour, mix on low speed until just blended.
One at a time add eggs, then lemon juice and zest, vanilla and salt until all incorporated.
Pour into prepared Graham cracker crust.
Bake 1 hour, the edges should be lightly browned and the middle of the cake may still jiggle a bit, it will firm up in fridge overnight.
When ready to serve remove from the fridge, and let the cheesecake come to room temperature before slicing and serving.
