Ingredients:–

For the Crust:-

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:-

  • 16 oz (2 blocks) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

For the Cherry Topping:-

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cherries (pitted and halved)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener

Instructions:–

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, 1/4 cup of powdered erythritol, and the melted butter. Mix until the ingredients are well combined.
  3. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a greased 8-inch springform pan to create an even crust. You can use the back of a spoon or your fingers to do this.
  4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until it begins to turn golden brown. Remove it from the oven and allow it to cool.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup powdered erythritol until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and heavy cream.
  7. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled almond flour crust in the springform pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set, and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  10. In a small saucepan, combine the cherries, water, and 1/4 cup powdered erythritol. Simmer over low heat for about 5-10 minutes, or until the cherries soften and release their juices. Let it cool.
  11. Once the cherry topping has cooled, spread it over the chilled cheesecake.
  12. Slice and serve your keto cherry cheesecake. Enjoy!

Remember to adjust the cherry topping to fit your carb intake goals, and feel free to use a sugar substitute of your choice to sweeten the filling…
