Best Low Carb Cheesecake Nut Crust Recipes

KETO CHEESECAKE CRUST

Steps:

• Chop your pecans finely with a knife or a nut chopper like this one and add them to a medium size mixing bowl.
• Then mix in 1/3 cup of monk fruit for keto, (or regular sugar), and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
• Add in your melted butter and mix until well combined.
• After it is all mixed together, pour the mixture into a greased 6" springform pan and press it into the bottom of the pan and up the sides.
• Or pour it into a 9" springform pan and it'll be the right amount to press into the bottom.
• Then bake the crust for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F.
• After baking it is ready for the cheesecake filling of your choice. Whether that be a low carb cheesecake filling or just a regular cheesecake filling.

KETO CHEESECAKE RECIPE (LOW CARB SUGAR-FREE CHEESECAKE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line a 9-inch (23-cm) springform pan with parchment paper.
• To make the almond flour cheesecake crust, stir the almond flour, melted butter, Besti, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl, until well combined. The dough will be slightly crumbly.
• Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, until barely golden. Let cool at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat the cream cheese and powdered sweetener together at low to medium speed until fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
• Beat in the lemon juice and vanilla extract. (Keep the mixer at low to medium the whole time; too high speed will introduce too many air bubbles, which we don't want.)
• Pour the filling into the pan over the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula (use an icing spatula for a smoother top if you have one). If you want to ensure no air bubbles, tap the pan on the counter several times.
• Bake for about 40-55 minutes, until the center is almost set, but still jiggly.
• Remove the cheesecake from the oven. If the edges are stuck to the pan, run a knife around the edge (don't remove the springform edge yet). Cool in the pan on the counter to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight), until completely set. (Do not try to remove the cake from the pan before chilling.)

LOW CARB CHEESECAKE WITH ALMOND CRUST

Steps:

• Almond Crust:.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix the almond flour, butter and sugar substitute in a bowl. Spray 8x8 square pan (or pie plate) with cooking spray, and press this mixture evenly into the pan.
• Place this crust in a preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden browned and slightly pulling away from the sides of the pan. Remove the crust from the oven, and let it cool while you make the filling.
• Cheesecake Filling:.
• Dissolve the Jello in the boiling water, stirring for 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool and slightly thickened (20-30 minutes).
• Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the Jello to the cream cheese, and mix really well. Add Cool Whip 1/2 cup at a time until well blended. Add the sugar substitute until blended. Spread the mixture in the pan or pie plate and chill for a couple of hours.
• This recipe is very versatile. Use different jello flavour or add more or less sugar substitute or use juice instead of water or fold fresh or canned fruit into the cheesecake filling.
