Keto Cheesecake Recipe
Ingredients
- For the crust:
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup melted unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the filling:
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup powdered erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Fresh berries for garnish
Instructions
- ctions:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, melted butter, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract for the crust. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press the crust mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared springform pan.
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- In a separate mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Mix in the sour cream and lemon juice until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Place the cheesecake in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are slightly golden.
- Once baked, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for about 1 hour to cool gradually.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow it to set.
- Before serving, remove the sides of the springform pan and transfer the cheesecake to a serving plate.
- Garnish with fresh berries of your choice, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.
