❤️ Why you'll love it

  • This low carb cheesecake recipe is so easy to make and only requires 10 minutes of active prep time.
  • It's a delicious dessert that you can indulge in without any guilt. The entire cheesecake has just 5 net carbs.
  • Best of all it is creamy and rich and tastes amazing!

Sometimes you've just have to have something sweet!

I know that if I don't indulge myself in low carb treats I'll eventually cave to my cravings and you'll find me sitting in the middle of the kitchen surrounded by Oreos.

This easy keto cheesecake recipe is the perfect solution to those cravings!

🧾 Ingredients

Ingredients for this recipe.

🔪 Instructions

Step by step images for making this cheesecake.
  1. Blend pecans in a food processor and add sweetener, salt, and butter.
  2. Make the crust and then press into the bottom of the containers.
  3. Mix together the cheesecake filling using room-temperature ingredients.
  4. Fill the crust with cream cheese mixture.

🥫 Storage

Cheesecake can be stored tightly covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container for up to five days in the refrigerator.

You can also store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

📖 Variations

  • Instead of making this recipe in individual-sized jars, you can use a pie pan or small springform pan to make a large keto cheesecake.
  • Chopped almonds, macadamia nuts, or walnuts can be used for the crust instead of pecans.
  • Drizzle the top of the cheesecake with sugar-free chocolate or caramel syrup for additional flavor.
  • Serve with fresh berries and whipped cream for a fresh touch.
  • A tablespoon of fresh lemon juice or lemon zest would add a tangy flavor to this creamy dessert.
  • Use different flavored sugar-free syrups for different flavors.

💭 Tips

Expert Tip: Use full-fat cream cheese to make this keto cheesecake recipe for the creamiest cheesecake and lowest carbs.

  • Make sure everything but the cream is at room temperature for the best results.
  • Make sure the chocolate chips are sugar free. I used Lily's - which have 0 net carbs per serving.
  • Freeze the crust while making the cheesecake filling.
  • If you can't find Confectioner's (Powdered) Swerve then blend granulated sweetener in a blender and measure the same amount. 
  • Don't overbeat the filling -  it will become too soft and not dense and rich.
  • If you use 4 ounce jelly jars this only has 3 net carbs - it will make 6 smaller servings.
  • Chill for the full 4 hours or overnight. During this time the flavors blend and the texture gets creamier.

👩‍🍳 FAQs

Can I use monk fruit sweetener instead of Swerve?

Yes. In fact, you can use any sugar-free sweetener that you prefer.

Can I make this keto dessert recipe without a crust?

Sure, just skip the steps to make the crust and only make the filling.

Can I use a springform pan?

Yes, a small springform pan will work for this recipe.

📞 The last word

Y'all, I first created this easy keto recipe about six years ago for a low carb blog I used to own. When two blogs got too much to handle I sold one and moved on.

But so many of y'all asked me to bring back my low carb recipes that I'm adding them here on Restless Chipotle. I hope you enjoy this no bake low carb cheesecake as much as I do!

It really helps to keep me on track.

This no bake keto cheesecake recipe is so rich that I usually only eat half at a time!
