Description

Indulge in this rich and creamy Keto Cheesecake, a low-carb dessert that satisfies sweet cravings without compromising your diet. Featuring a buttery almond flour crust and luscious cream cheese filling, this guilt-free treat is perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

For the Crust:

Almond flour

Melted butter

Erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener

Vanilla extract

For the Cheesecake Filling:

Cream cheese, softened

Sour cream

Erythritol or other low-carb sweetener

Large eggs

Vanilla extract

Lemon juice (optional)


Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Combine almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract in a bowl; mix until well blended.
  3. Press the mixture into the pan’s bottom and bake for 10–12 minutes until golden and firm. Let it cool.

2. Make the Cheesecake Filling

  1. Beat softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth.
  2. Add sour cream, erythritol, vanilla extract, and lemon juice (if using), and mix until creamy.
  3. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  4. Pour the filling over the cooled crust, smoothing the top.

3. Bake

  1. Bake for 50–60 minutes until the edges are set, and the center is slightly jiggly.
  2. Turn off the oven, cool the cheesecake inside with the door ajar for 1 hour, then let it cool completely at room temperature.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

4. Serve

  1. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and place it on a serving plate.
  2. Garnish with keto-friendly toppings like whipped cream or fresh berries, if desired.

Notes

To prevent cracks, cool the cheesecake slowly in the oven and avoid overmixing the batter.

For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped clean between cuts.

Lemon juice is optional but enhances the tangy flavor of the cheesecake.
