Preheat your oven to 350F. Line a baking dish with parchment paper and set aside. (It is ok if the parchment paper folds, creating the Basque look.)
Separate the egg whites from the yolks.
Mix the yolks, sweetener, vanilla, yogurt, cream cheese, Blueberry Muffin Super Coffee, and vanilla together in a small bowl until smooth.
Beat the egg white in a medium bowl until fluffy. Then, fold the egg whites into the yogurt mixture.
Add the coconut flour and cornstarch and mix until fully combined.
Fold in the lemon zest and blueberries.
Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until set and golden brown around the edges and on top.
Place in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
Top with warm blueberries and powdered sugar if desired.
Enjoy!
