What can I substitute for goat cheese. ??
Will spreadable goat cheese work for this recipe if you can’t find the one you listed? Just curious.
Allergic to eggs. Can I use egg substitute?
Hi Mj, here are the substitutions I recommend: One egg = ½ mashed banana, ¼ cup applesauce, 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water; 1 tablespoon chia + 3 tablespoons water (allow both to sit for 10-15 minutes to thicken). I hope this helps!
Costco has great tasting goat cheese and its very inexpensive!
I used this recipe for our Thanksgiving, and it was a huge success! I had leftover batter, as I didn’t make my own crust, but used a gluten free one instead. So, I made mini cheesecake bites! :)
Cannot find chèvre goat cheese, what could I use instead?
Thanks
It depends on the tool you are using to beat the mixture with or if you are using your hands. Just beat until mixture is smooth.
I just can’t stomach goat cheese. Any suggestions for a substitute? This looks really delicious, especially the crust!
It has more of the “cheesecake” texture and taste than of goat cheese in this recipe!
