    This Gluten-Free Baked Apricot Ricotta Cheesecake is just perfect!

    I know that sounds like a big statement but I just can't rave about this cheesecake enough. It is silky smooth, can be eaten on its own dusted with icing sugar, or drizzled with cream and topped with fresh berries!

    The choice is yours, but in my home, this is the dessert that everyone wants and it is always a hit at dinner parties.

    The Best Apricot Ricotta Baked Cheesecake - Gluten Free!!
    Smooth, Creamy Baked Apricot Ricotta Cheesecake recipe!

    Sometimes being gluten-free,  can be frustrating when your out and the dessert is cheesecake (and you know that it has a biscuit base and contains gluten).... but with this recipe, the cheesecake is baked and doesn't need a biscuit base!

    We make this cheesecake with a good quality apricot jam to give it a subtle, tangy flavour.

    If you want to change it up ever so slightly you can simply replace the apricot jam with lemon curd (I can vouch for this one... it is just as wonderful! )

    The best part is that it is really easy to make....and eat! 😉

    Tips to making Silky Baked Apricot Ricotta Cheesecake

    Tip Number 1

    Turn off the oven and leave the oven door ajar and leave the cake to cool completely in the oven. Then put it in the fridge to chill. It is best eaten cold!

    Tip Number 2

    Remove from the cake tin by using a butter knife to go around the edge - to loosen the cake from the pan. It is easier than to open the springform pan

      I HAVE to try this, it looks and sounds amazing, plus it also looks fairly easy. I never cooled my cheesecakes in the oven, but am definitely going to give it a try now.
