Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tbsp powdered erythritol
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the cream cheese. Use an electric mixer or a spatula to soften it until smooth and creamy. This process may take about 3 minutes if using a mixer.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. If you prefer a more evenly distributed blueberry flavor, lightly smash some of the blueberries with a fork before adding them to the cream cheese.
Add the powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and salt to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated and smooth.
Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more erythritol to suit your taste preferences.
Once fully mixed, transfer the blueberry cream cheese into a serving dish or airtight container.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together and for the mixture to slightly firm up.
Serve chilled, spreading generously on your favorite low-carb bread, bagels, or use as a delightful dip for fruits and snacks.
