Introduction
If you’re following a keto diet, finding delicious desserts that fit within your low-carb lifestyle can be a challenge. However, with the right recipe, you can still enjoy a sweet treat without sacrificing your dietary goals. In this blog post, we’ll share a keto cheesecake recipe that is not only better than what you’ll find at the Cheesecake Factory but also fits perfectly into your low-carb eating plan. This recipe originated when our family had a reservation for dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. I wanted to “x the carbs,” but I didn’t want to lose the flavor of my favorite dessert. I started looking at recipes and thought to myself, why would anyone destroy a delicious dessert with so much processed sugar? Since my son usually gets dessert to go, I wanted to have my own sugar-free treat to come home to. I hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a 9 inch springform pan with parchment paper or tin foil and set aside.
- Grind your nut of choice. I found using a coffee bean grinder was perfect for grinding the nuts for a perfect crust. If you have a food processor, you can use that too.
- Measure out 2 ½ cups and place it into a mixing bowl. Add the melted butter and mix together until combined.
- Transfer the nut crust to the lined springform pan and use the back of the spoon to spread around the edges. Refrigerate the crust while you are preparing the filling.
- Mix cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar substitute and well blended.
- Add the eggs, then vanilla extract, and blend.
- Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and add the cheesecake filling.
- Place the cheesecake in the oven and bake for an hour, until the middle is mostly set.
- Turn off the oven and open the door slightly. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely. Once cooled, refrigerate for a few hours.
