This cheesecake tart is simply addictive. Gluten-free crunchy crust, made from buckwheat flour, creamy vanilla filling with only 5 ingredients, and finally the figs, which after baking, taste like jam, do you like figs? Then you’ll love this tart.
This tart is really easy to make, the dough is one my favorite recipes, very simple and very crispy after being baked, and it is a healthy dough, free of refined products such as white flours or sugars, and its freeze friendly too.
The cheesecake filling is free of refined sugars, and sweetened with muscovado or coconut sugar. This filling only has low-fat cream cheese, natural unsweetened yogurt or coconut milk, vanilla extract and finally some eggs.
And on top, fresh figs, thinly sliced, that combine very well with the creamy vanilla filling.

Stretch the dough to a thickness of 2mm. Put it in a lined mold of 22 cm in diameter. Puncture the entire base with a fork and lay aside
Filling
-
Mix the cream cheese with the vanilla, yogurt and sugar. In another bowl beat the eggs with the salt, integrate everything and put on the crust.

Bake for 40 minutes in a water bath* remove from the oven, cut the figs and put them on the filling, cover the mold with aluminum foil and bake another 20 minutes until the cheesecake is firm. Let cool, keep in the refrigerator and enjoy
Recipe Notes
* Baking in a water bath means that the mold of the cake is inside another mold, or a baking pan, with water. With only 1 or 2 fingers of water it’s enough.
