Time 2h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup finely ground hazelnuts
1 cup gluten-free flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup crème fraîche
1/8 cup gluten-free flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325. Make the crust: Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until mixture looks like coarse pea-size crumbs, about 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch or 10-inch springform pan. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes; set aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for the filling in the bowl of the food processor and purée until smooth. Pour the mixture into the cooled crust and bake for 1 hour, or until set in the center, up to 15 minutes longer. Let cool and then chill until fully set, preferably overnight.
  • Make the glaze: put the sugar and the water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and allow the sugar to caramelize. When the mixture is a medium-amber color, about 8 minutes, pull the pot off the heat and add the heavy cream. When the bubbles subside, add the butter. Continue stirring until all the butter has been incorporated; add salt to season and let cool.
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator and release from the pan. Pour the warm glaze over it to serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out very well. The crust was soggy and the filling was grainy.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. The crust is crispy and the filling is creamy and smooth.
