BANANA & CREAM CHEESE TART
Banana with cream cheese tart!
I will tell you that the combo banana-cream cheese is absolutely delicious! Have you ever tried it before? It’s actually like a banana cheesecake!
This healthy recipe is a great choice when you have a gathering with your family or fiends! I made it with a bigger mold so keep in mind the quantity of the ingredients if you use a smaller mold.
The crust is gluten free made from scratch with almond flour and coconut sugar but feel free to use cookies if you want, I do sometimes because let’s be realistic, who doesn’t like a cookie crust right?
DIABETIC DIET TIP
These healthy banana cheesecake tart is a great option for a healthy snack or a healthy dessert for diabetics and non diabetics also!
Since the base is made with almond flour and coconut sugar; and the filling is made with bananas and cream cheese (make sure to always use full fat dairy)… it won’t spike your blood sugar levels as long as they’re stable! Even though you have a higher sugar content from the bananas, it’s not much overall. And the healthy fats from this healthy recipe will help lower digestion and have a great blood sugar response.
Try it and let us know!! We would be glad to know these healthy dessert recipes actually help you too as well as it works for us :)
INGREDIENTS
Crust:
2 cup or 195gr of almond flour
1/2 cup or 70gr of coconut sugar
1/2 cup or 75gr of coconut oil
1 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt
*Can also substitute for a Graham cracker base but wouldn’t be gluten-free.
Filling:
4 ripe bananas
8oz/230g organic cream cheese
1/4 cup or 60ml of fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
Optional: gelatin or agar agar for thickness, I didn’t use any and kept it in the freezer.
STEPS
In a bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar and salt. Stir in the melted coconut oil and mix until fully combined.
Transfer dough to a 9-inch/22cm tart pan with a removable bottom. Using a measuring cup or your fingers, evenly press dough in bottom and up sides of pan. Refrigerate.
Blend the bananas and add the cream cheese little by little until fully combined.
Pour the banana filling over the crust evenly and refrigerate for at least 1h.
* Store in the fridge if you used gelatine or in the freezer.

1/2 taza o 70gr de azúcar de coco
1/2 taza o 75gr de aceite de coco o mantequilla de vacas de pasto

Triturar los plátanos y añadir el queso crema poco a poco hasta que quede todo bien integrado.
Verter la mezcla encima de la base y dejar en la nevera almenos 1 hora.
