Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • cups Almond Flour
  • ¼ cup Melted Butter
  • 2 tbsp Erythritol
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon (Optional)
For The Filling:
  • 3 block Softened Cream Cheese
  • ¾ cup Powdered Erythritol
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ cup Sour Cream
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice (Optional For Brightness)

Equipment

  • 1 Springform Pan
  • 1 Mixing bowls
  • 1 Electric Mixer or Whisk
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 Baking Tray

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line the bottom of a springform pan with parchment paper.
  2. Make the Crust:In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and cinnamon. Press the mixture into the pan evenly to form a crust.
  3. Bake the Crust:Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool while preparing the filling.
  4. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add erythritol and mix well.
  5. Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in eggs one at a time. Then add vanilla extract, sour cream, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  6. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the cooled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake: Place the pan on a baking tray and bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are slightly golden.
  8. Cool: Turn off the oven and crack the door open. Let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
  9. Chill: Transfer to the fridge and chill for at least 3 hours (preferably overnight).
  10. Serve: Slice and serve as-is or top with fresh berries or sugar-free whipped cream.

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth filling.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to avoid cracks.
  • Use a water bath for more even baking and a smoother top.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly before slicing for clean cuts.
  • For added flavor, try a raspberry swirl or chocolate drizzle (keto-friendly).
