Crust
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup melted butter
- 2 tablespoons erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Cheesecake Filling
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup powdered erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream
Topping
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons erythritol (for sprinkling over the top)
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and cinnamon until the mixture becomes crumbly and combines evenly.
- Form the Crust: Press the crumbly mixture firmly into the bottom of a lined 8×8-inch baking dish, ensuring an even layer. Set aside for the filling preparation.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: Using a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy with no lumps remaining.
- Add Sweetener and Flavor: Gradually incorporate the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract into the cream cheese, mixing thoroughly until well combined and smooth.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, indicating it holds its shape well.
- Fold Whipped Cream into Cream Cheese Mixture: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, being careful to maintain the airy texture.
- Assemble the Bars: Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the prepared almond flour crust, smoothing it out to cover the crust completely.
- Add Topping: In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and erythritol. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cheesecake filling for a churro-inspired finish.
- Chill and Set: Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake bars for at least 4 hours or until firm, allowing the filling to set properly.
- Serve: Once the bars have set, cut into squares and serve chilled for a refreshing, delicious keto dessert.
Notes
- Use preferred keto-friendly sweeteners like erythritol or monk fruit for best results.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for smooth mixing.
- Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks for optimal texture in the filling.
- Press the crust firmly and evenly to prevent crumbling when cutting the bars.
- Chilling time can be extended for firmer bars or overnight for convenience.
- Store leftover bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
