This Keto Strawberry Cheesecake is rich and rich and more rich, but in a good way! This is a creamy and delicious dessert, keto style, that will satisfy your cravings for great cheesecake! Using almond flour for a low-carb option or crushed keto-friendly cookies for a decadent treat, the crust is buttery and firm, and baking, making an excellent base for the rich cream cheese filling. The filling is sweetened with erythritol (or you can use stevia, or even monkfruit), allowing for a creamy, velvety texture without all the blood-sugar spiking.
At the top, fresh strawberries or sugar-free strawberry sauce is piled on to provide natural sweetness and a cool change from the richness of the cheesecake. Some versions swirl the strawberries right into the filling for streaks of crimson, and others layer whipped cream over the tops for an extra note of indulgence.
It’s also a great make-ahead keto dessert for your holiday dinners, for parties, or as a weekly indulgence. Sweet and tangy, with a bit of creaminess, this creamy keto strawberry cheesecake is sure to please anyone looking for a sweet treat, without going off the rails on the ketogenic diet. It makes an indulgent, guilt-free treat for those who crave something sweet while on a low-carb diet.
