Ingredients:
- ½ Cup Almond Flour
- ½ Cup Peanuts
- ½ Cup Cashews
- ½ Cup Butter
- 2 Cups Cream Cheese
- ¾ Cup Sour Cream
- 1/2 Cup Sukrin (or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener)
- 3 Eggs
- 2 TBSP Vanilla Essence
- 1 TBSP Lemon Zest
- 1 TBSP Lemon Juice
- 1 TSP Salt
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper and grease the sides with butter or cooking spray.
- In a food processor, combine the almond flour, peanuts, cashews, and butter. Pulse until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Press the nut mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan, creating an even crust. Bake for 10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool.
- In a blender or mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, Sukrin (or sweetener of choice), eggs, vanilla essence, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt. Blend or mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the cream cheese filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan. Smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven at 325°F (163°C) for approximately 40 minutes or until the center is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to develop and the cheesecake to set.
- Serve the Keto Low-Carb Cheesecake chilled and garnish with fresh strawberries or your favorite low-carb topping.
