Yogurt Cheesecake with Spelt Flour Crust and Fruit Filling

Ingredients

  • 3 cups of light spelt or all-purpose flour (about 450 g)
  • 5 egg yolks
  • 200 g butter
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/3 cup sugar (or more if you like sweeter cakes)
  • 1000 g natural yogurt
  • 5 egg whites
  • 1/3 cup sugar (or more if you like sweeter cakes)
  • 2 sugar-free vanilla pudding mixes
  • Plum jam or blackcurrant jam

Instructions

  1. Sift the flour together with the baking powder, then add the sugar.
  2. Add the egg yolks to the mixture. Set aside the egg whites as they will be needed for the cheesecake filling.
  3. Cut the butter into smaller pieces, then add them to the mixture. Knead the dough until the ingredients combine and the dough becomes smooth.
  4. Divide the dough into two parts, one smaller and one larger. Place the smaller part in the freezer.
  5. Roll out the larger part and use it to line the bottom of a baking sheet. Optionally, pre-bake it for 10 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius (350°F). Spread plum jam over the base.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites gradually adding sugar and the two pudding mixes. Finally, add yogurt and mix until all ingredients combine.
  7. Pour the cheesecake filling over the plum jam layer.
  8. Take out the second part of the dough from the freezer and grate it over the cheesecake filling.
  9. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius (350°F) for about 50-55 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the cake inside for about half an hour (it won't collapse).
