How to Make Keto No-Bake Caramel Pecan Cheesecake

PIN IT

1. Prepare the crust – In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla until crumbly. Press firmly into the bottom of a springform pan. Chill for 15 minutes.
2. Make the filling – Beat cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered erythritol, vanilla, and caramel extract. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks and gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture. Spread evenly over the crust.
3. Prepare the caramel pecan topping – In a small saucepan, melt butter and stir in brown erythritol. Cook until it bubbles and caramelizes slightly. Add heavy cream and a pinch of salt, whisking until smooth. Stir in chopped pecans.
4. Assemble – Pour the warm caramel pecan mixture over the cheesecake layer. Spread evenly.
5. Chill – Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until firm and sliceable.

What to Serve with Keto No-Bake Caramel Pecan Cheesecake

This dessert is a showstopper on its own, but if you want to go big:

• Serve with bulletproof coffee for the ultimate keto treat.
• Add a side of fresh raspberries to cut through the richness.
• For the holidays, drizzle with extra sugar-free chocolate or top with whipped cream.

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Use room-temperature cream cheese for the smoothest filling.
• Don’t skip chilling—this cheesecake firms up beautifully overnight.
• If your caramel looks grainy, add a splash of cream and whisk vigorously.

Storage Instructions

• Refrigerator: Store covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
• Freezer: Freeze slices individually in airtight containers for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight before serving.

General Information

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I make this dairy-free?
Yes! Swap cream cheese for vegan cream cheese and heavy cream for coconut cream.

2. Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely. In fact, it’s better the next day after chilling overnight.

3. What’s the best sweetener for keto caramel?
Allulose gives the smoothest caramel, while erythritol may crystallize slightly.

4. Can I make mini cheesecakes instead?
Yes, just press the crust into muffin tins for portion control.
