    How to make keto strawberry cheesecake

    Keto No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake

    Before you start making this Keto no bake cheesecake, you'll want to line an 8 inch square pan or baking dish with with 2 layers of plastic wrap leaving 3 to 4 inches to overlap the top all the way around. The plastic wrap will make it easy to remove the cheesecake from the pan.

    We will start by making the crust for this keto cheesecake. Cheesecake typically uses a graham cracker' crust, but we will be making our own low carb crust. Mix the gelatin with the almond flour and then add the stevia powder and salt.

    almond flour in a bowl

    Drop in the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, vegetable shortening, vanilla extract and lemon juice. Mix these with the dry ingredients to form a loose dough.

    Using your fingers, press the cheesecake crust dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. You can use a small piece of parchment paper to help keep the dough from sticking to your fingers as you press it into place.

    Next, chop the strawberries into small pieces. Place them into a bowl and mash them with a fork.

    Add stevia powder and vanilla extract to the strawberries and stir. Let the strawberries soak while you prepare the filling.

    For the filling, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the stevia powder in a mixing bowl and mix them together. Next, add the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Finally, add the softened cream cheese. Blend until everything is well mixed and there are no clumps in the mixture.

    Finally, add the mashed strawberries and stir them into the cheese mixture so they are evenly distributed. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and smooth it with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until everything is firm which takes about 2 to 4 hours.

    Remove the cheese cake from the pan and gently peel the plastic away. The crust should be firm enough to be handled carefully. Place the cake on a serving plate and slice with a sharp knife and serve cold.

    Garnish this keto no bake cheesecake with some cut up strawberries. You can also place some strawberries in a blender and make a strawberry puree or strawberry sauce to drizzle on top. Or you can drizzle on some sugar free chocolate syrup for a treat.

      I will try this without the crust. Just put the filling a dessert cup and put strawberries on top.
