If you’re looking for a delicious and guilt-free dessert, this low-carb cheesecake recipe is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth! Made with a nut flour crust and a creamy, flavorful filling, this cheesecake is the perfect dessert for anyone following a low-carb or keto diet.

Ingredients:

For the crust:

  • 10 TBS Butter (1 stick plus 1/4 stick)
  • 2 Cups Nut Flour (I use pecan or a mixed nut flour)
  • 1/3 Cup Swerve Brown Sugar

For the Filling:

  • 16 oz Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 1/2 Cup Swerve Confectioners Sugar
  • 2 Medium-Large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Lemon Extract
  • Fresh lemon or other flavor to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. To make the crust mix the nut flour and Swerve brown sugar together in a large bowl.
  3. Melt the butter in a separate microwave-safe bowl for approximately 30 seconds or until melted.
  4. Add the melted butter to the nut flour mixture and stir until well combined.
  5. Press the mixture into the bottom of a lined (either with parchment paper or using a nonstick cooking spray) 9-inch springform pan, making sure to spread it evenly. If you prefer a thick crust, this is not enough to have high edges. Set aside. (You can bake for a few minutes, but I do not bake the crust separately.)
  6. To make the filling, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the Swerve confectioners sugar, vanilla extract, lemon extract, and any additional flavorings you desire, and continue beating until well combined.
  7. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  8. Pour the filling into the crust, spreading it out evenly.
  9. Bake the cheesecake on the middle rack for 20-25 minutes (bake time will depend on your oven), or until the center is set and the top is a golden brown.
  10. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely.
  11. This cheesecake is best served after chilling in the fridge overnight and topped with low-carb fruit like strawberries!
