from his Dopamine book, this complicated cheesecake which I made today with frozen berries instead of strawberry.

Just had my slice and thought it was very nice. For those without the book, it's about 60g carbs for the whole cheesecake and feeds 6-8 people (that is made with strawberries). My wife was unsure about the base. If you don't like flaxseed than that can be a problem, it's used extensively in the book.

Looks great and that sounds very reasonable carbwise! 🙂
 
I made a baked cheesecake a couple of weeks ago, but used Tom Kerridge's base & really liked it.
 
Looks great, I am planning on doing that for my birthday next week. I made the flaxseed biscuits as well which were lovely with cheese.
 
Any diabetic who hasn't bought Tom Kerridges Dopamine Diet book is missing out on a whole book full of really tasty low carb treats. Best cookbook I've ever bought, after Mary Berry's Baking Bible, or as I prefer to call it, Mary Berry's insulin drain.😉

Well I will continue to miss out then, I don't do cookery books and only know who Tom Kerridge is as my friend wanted one of his books for Christmas a few years ago.

totally agree.
 
We have our son and family up for a week and have just about polished off the cheesecake. However all decided that the base was the least nice part of the cheescake, but the top was lush.
 
I knew Tom had changed his eating, but didn't realize he had a book, which I have now ordered from Amazon - thanks for the heads up.
