Low Carb Keto Cheesecake

Cheesecake is my weakness. And this recipe makes so much sense. Of course it’s low carb, it’s just cream cheese, eggs and some flavoring. I had an ah’ha moment when I found this recipe…“WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT?”. I’ve experimented with several additions to this basic recipe. Cinnamon makes it taste almost like a snicker doodle. Lemon juice and zest gives it a great fresh, light texture. And of course, adding cocoa powder just makes it so indulgent and good.

Hopefully, you’ll enjoy this as much as we do.

Yum! I’ve also made something like this with a crust made out of almond meal. Just almond meal or almond flour and melted butter - press into the baking dish and par-bake for a few minutes before adding in the cheesecake mixture and baking. It’s very yummy!
