Keto Cheesecake in a Jar

Wednesday, May 11, 2022 2:01

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

My sister told me about this video she saw on YouTube the other night for a Keto Strawberry Cheesecake in a Jar. It looked and sounded delicious, but I did not want enough cheesecake to feed four people.

And so I downsized it to feed just one person. Voila! Keto Strawberry Cheesecake in a Jar for one! And let me tell you it is some delicious! In fact, naughty or not, it is what I had for my lunch today!

This fabulously easy keto friendly recipe lacks nothing in the way of a real cheesecake. You still have all the lovely cookie crumbs in the bottom . . . sweet and buttery.

You have the rich vanilla cheesecake filling, light and fluffy, and topped with fresh sweet berries. Finally you have a delicious whipped cream topping sprinkled with more of those sweet and buttery cookie crumbs!

And yet this scrumptious dessert is totally sugar free. Totally gluten free. Low Carb. Keto friendly as well as being Diabetic friendly, with only 4 carbs per serving.

What more could you ask for in the way of a delicious dessert. Not much I say, not much! Quick and easy to make as well. Count me In with a capital “I!”

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE KETO CHEESECAKE IN A JAR

A few simple ingredients, and not much more!

For the crumbs:

1 TBS almond flour
1/2 tsp brown sugar natural sweetener (aids in caramelization)
1 TBS butter, melted (may not need it all)

For the cheesecake:

2 ounces (56g) full fat cream cheese at room temperature
1/8 cup (20g) powdered natural sweetener
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

You will also need

2 small strawberries, chopped
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream whipped
more of the almond crumbles to sprinkle on top

You will also need a jam jar. I used one from a jar of Bonne Maman preserves. I think this was one from the super fruit jam. It had a nice shape. We eat first with our eyes.

The crumb base uses only three ingredients. Almond flour (finely ground almonds), brown sugar substitute and butter. I found that the original recipe called for far too much butter. I ended up with a soup, so I did it again only adding enough of the melted butter to give me a loose crumble mixture.

Again, don’t use low fat ingredients for this recipe. They add sugars and stuff to make up for the lack of fat. Use only full fat cream cheese, and of course the whipping cream is full fat as well.

Use whatever fruit you want to top it with. I used strawberries, but you could also use blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, any fruit really.

Just so long as you don’t sweeten it with any sugar. If your fruit is especially tart you can add some sweetener to sweeten it up.

Really, however, you shouldn’t need to sweeten it at all. There is plenty of sweet in the cheesecake base and the crumbs to make up for it.

Those almond crumbs on the base are incredibly moreish. Just warning you. Maybe you might want to double them, lol.

HOW TO MAKE KETO CHEESECAKE IN A JAR

Nothing could be quicker or easier. The longest part is making the crumbs.

First make the crumb base. Preheat the oven to 350*F/180*C/ gas mark 4. Line a small baking tray with baking paper.

Mix together the almond flour and the sugar replacement until well combined. Add the melted butter, only using enough to give you a crumble mixture. Sprinkle onto the baking sheet.

Bake for 6 to 8 minutes until a light golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

Measure the cream cheese, powdered sweetener, whipping cream and vanilla into a bowl. Beat together with an electric mixer until fluffy and combined.

Crumble most of the almond crumbs into the bottom of a small mason jar, reserving a few crumbles for the topping. Dollop the cheese mixture over top. Tap the jar on the counter a few times so that it settles.

Top with the chopped berries. Spoon the whipped cream on top. Sprinkle with the remaining almond crumbs and enjoy!

This was incredibly edibly delicious. Not low in fat, but if you are following a keto diet that doesn’t matter.

Some of my other desserts which you might enjoy are:

SUGAR FREE LEMON PUDDING CAKE - another sugar free delicious keto and diabetic friendly dessert. If you like lemon desserts you will love this.

QUICK AND EASY BANANA PUDDING – If you are looking for a quick dessert that is not only easy to make but delicious this simple pudding fits the bill on all counts!

I really couldn’t wait to dig into this lush dessert. As I said I made it for my lunch. I licked the ~~bowl~~ jar clean! It was fabulously tasty.

This is one I can see myself making often, especially when the local berries are ripe and ready. I would even make it for company!
