Instructions
1. Make the Taco Shells:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the melted butter and egg until a dough forms.
- Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/8-inch thickness.
- Use a round cookie cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out circles from the dough.
- Place the dough circles on the baking sheet. You can shape them into taco shells by draping them over the edge of an oven-safe rack or by using a mold. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Allow them to cool and harden.
2. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the sour cream, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Refrigerate while you prepare the strawberries.
3. Make the Strawberry Topping:
- In a small saucepan, combine the diced strawberries, lemon juice, and erythritol.
- Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until the strawberries are softened and the mixture has thickened slightly. Let it cool to room temperature.
4. Assemble the Mini Cheesecake Tacos:
- Fill each taco shell with a spoonful of the cheesecake filling.
- Top with the strawberry mixture.
- Garnish with a small mint leaf or a sprinkle of crushed nuts if desired.
Tips:
- For the shells: You can use a taco shell mold or shape them manually by draping over the back of a muffin tin to get a taco shape.
- For extra sweetness: Adjust the amount of erythritol based on your taste preference.
