Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F. Combine 1 1/2 cups almond flour and 6 tbsp melted butter in a bowl. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, beat 16 oz softened cream cheese with 1 cup powdered erythritol until smooth and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer.
- Step 3: Add 3 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1/2 cup sour cream until fully combined.
- Step 4: Pour the cheesecake batter over the crust in the pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-55 minutes until the edges are set and the center slightly jiggles.
- Step 5: Remove from oven and cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Step 6: Before serving, spread 1/2 cup sugar-free lemon curd evenly over the top and garnish with 4 thin lemon slices.
