Gluten-free, vegan and keto: we like it “cheesy”

By:

Indeed, we like our cheesecake to be “cheesy”, and there’s a lot of yummy cheesecake recipes out there. But does cheesecake also rhyme with healthy? You might think it doesn’t, so that’s why it might be on your guilty pleasure list. But what if we told you that there’s a solution? OKONO, one of the partners of Herculean Alliance, is here to the rescue by offering a gluten-free, vegan and keto cheesecake recipe. Hallelujah. We just LOVE their cheesecake granola bombs! And cheesy they are indeed.

Give it a try.

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

  • sugar-free jam
