Keto NY Cheesecake

This is an adaptation of a popular New York cheesecake recipe that I revised for low-carb diets. The crust is a little off because there's really no perfect substitute for graham cracker, but otherwise it tastes just like my favorite NY cheesecake. Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• 2 tablespoons water
• ½ cup sour cream
• ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
• 5 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons almond flour
• ⅔ cup almond meal
• ¾ cup low-calorie natural sweetener (such as Swerve®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.

Step 2

Mix almond meal and butter together in a bowl. Spoon into bottoms of the paper liners; press down to form a flat crust.

Step 3

Stir cream cheese and sweetener together in a bowl just until smooth. Mix in whipping cream and water. Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in sour cream, almond flour, and vanilla extract. Spoon into paper liners.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until cream cheese mixture is almost set in the middle, 15 to 18 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.

Step 5

Let cool at room temperature; refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
