Better Baking Academy: Classic Cheesecake with Amanda Powell

For our third lesson of the Better Baking Academy with Bob’s Red Mill, we’re tackling cheesecake! Our cheesecake has an uber creamy, dreamy texture thanks to a triple-threat dairy base comprised of heavy whipping cream, sour cream, and cream cheese. The vanilla bean seed-speckled filling covers a crunchy, buttery crust made with a winning combination of Bob’s Red Mill Old Fashioned Rolled Oats and Bob’s Red Mill Super-Fine Blanched Almond Flour. We bring on baker Amanda Powell of the blog A Cookie Named Desire to discuss the nuances of cheesecake, from the delicious crust to the creamy filling. Then Amanda shares some info about her blog, her love of theater, and her crave-worthy Turtle Cheesecake.
