👩🍳 How to Make Keto Cheesecake
Step 1: Prepare the Crust
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, vanilla, and salt. Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 8–10 minutes until golden. Set aside to cool.
Step 2: Make the Filling
In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sweetener until smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, beating after each. Mix in vanilla, sour cream, and lemon juice until just combined.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
Pour the filling over the cooled crust. Tap the pan to release air bubbles. Bake at 325°F for 45–50 minutes, or until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly.
⚠️ Do not overbake! The cheesecake will firm up as it chills.
Step 4: Chill
Let cool at room temp for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours or overnight for best texture.

🧊 Storage & Freezing
