Lactose-Free Cheesecake Pie is Easy to Make
So one day I was dreaming about creamy lactose-free cheesecake pie scented with lemon and vanilla nestled in a crispy, crunchy pat-in crust. And one of the benefits of being a recipe developer is that I can make dreams like this come true!
TA DA!
Behold our stunning lactose-free cheesecake pie, using lactose-free cream cheese and a Cinnamon Pecan Seeded Pat-In Pie Crust made with FODY Cinnamon Seed Crunch breakfast cereal. Easy, crisp, crunchy, delicious and super quick to make.
We thought the pomegranate added a really festive touch. You can see we also tried a version with the addition of kiwi: both low FODMAP fruit, in the correct portions.

Lactose-Free Cheesecake Pie with Pomegranate
This cheesecake is lactose-free and easy to make. The pat-in crust is foolproof.
Low FODMAP Serving Size Info: Makes 1, 9-inch (23 cm) pie; 12 servings
Ingredients:
- 1, partially blind baked Cinnamon Pecan Seeded Pat-In Pie Crust, see article on Blind Baking Pie Crust
Filling:
- 1 pound (455 g) lactose-free cream cheese, divided, such as Green Valley Organics
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature, beaten
- 1/2 cup (99 g) sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- 2 ounces (55 g) pomegranate seeds
- 1 green kiwi, optional
Preparation:
-
Have the crust already partially baked and cooled.
-
Position rack in middle of oven. Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.
-
Place about half of the cream cheese (you can do this by eye) in a mixing bowl and blend well with an electric mixer to smooth it out. Add the beaten eggs, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla and pinch of salt and beat just until blended. Beat in remaining cream cheese until entire mixture is creamy and smooth. Pour into prepared crust.
-
Bake for 20 minutes then turn heat down to 325°F/165°C and continue to bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or just until edges of the cheesecake are set. The center should remain a little less done. It will firm up upon cooling. Cool pie.
-
Add fruit decoratively, as desired. Refrigerate pie at least 2 hours before serving. Pie will keep, lightly covered, in refrigerated for up to 2 days. Serve chilled.
