I think we can all agree that having a wide arsenal of easy yet delicious keto cheesecake recipes can uplevel a weekend or even make special occasions extra special.

They say, “Cheesecake fixes everything,” and I want to believe that the Golden Girls were onto something when they said that. Considering how everything is going right now, maybe sitting down with a slice might make things a tiiiiiny bit better.

is cheesecake bad for keto?

This actually depends on the crust and the sweetener you’re mixing in with your cream cheese. As long as you substitute the non-keto ingredients with something that’s low carb, then you can get away with making cake AND eating it too!

keto cheesecake ingredients & substitutes

Some of the keto-friendly ingredients you’ll find in this recipe roundup are:

  • Cream cheese – A 3oz of cream cheese only contains 3.5g of carbs, 5g protein, and 29g of fat.
  • Coconut flour – A 1/4 cup of coconut flour contains 8g of net carbs, 6g protein, and 4g fat.
  • Almond flour – 28g of almond flour contains 2.6g of net carbs, 6.1g of protein, and 14.2g of fat (9 of which are really good for your body).
  • Sunflower seed flour – 28g of sunflower seed flour only contains 3g of net carbs, 5g protein, and 16g fat. This is a great keto cheesecake base option if you don’t like coconuts or have nut allergies.
  • Erythritol – A sugar alternative that won’t spike your blood sugar.
  • Monkfruit sweetener – This is as close to sugar as you can get minus the carbs.
  • Stevia – Another sugar-free sweetener that you can use to cook with. Make sure that the brand you buy is not mixed with dextrose (glucose) and maltodextrin (starch).
