How do you make a cheesecake recipe low-carb?
The traditional crust of cheesecake is made with gram cracker crumbs or regular flour, so to keep this recipe low carb you will use almond flour to make the crusts. And you will use a sugar alternative like monk fruit sweetener in the crust and filling to at the sweetness without all the carbs and sugars.

How do you make low-carb cheesecake bites?
For the low-carb almond flour crust:
To make the low-carb cheesecake crust first combine melted butter, Now Foods Almond Flour and Lakanto Monk fruit Sweetener.
Fully combine all of these ingredients, the mixture will still be crumbly, but that’s ok because now you will firmly press about two teaspoons of the almond flour crust mixture into each section of an ice cube tray.
This low-carb cheesecake crust is primarily an almond flour crust, which my go-to brand is Now Foods Raw Almond Flour. The only ingredient on the nutrition label is almonds. Since it’s Raw almond flour, it’s going to be less processed than many other almond flours.
I recommend using Lakanto Monk fruit Sweetener for a sugar-free cheesecake crust. Lakanto is the sugar substitute I use in all of my Keto Dessert Recipes because it’s NON-GMO, no maltodextrin, no artificial flavoring or sweeteners and it doesn’t have that strange after taste like many of the sugar replacements do.
If you check out Lakanto’s site and decide to stock your pantry be sure to use code MERMAID for an extra discount.
For the sugar-free cheesecake filling:
In a separate bowl, you'll combine the softened cream cheese, plain unsweetened Greek yogurt, the juice from half of a lemon, vanilla extract, and the remaining Lakanto Monk fruit Sweetener.
Once it’s all fully blended, evenly spoon the Keto cheesecake filling on top and smooth the tops with a spoon or spatula

Can you eat yogurt on the Keto Diet?
To ease your troubled mind, I snagged this snippet from healthline.com ”Although plain yogurt is fairly low in carbs, many people tend to eat fruit-flavored, artificially sweetened low-fat or nonfat yogurt. ... One cup of nonfat sweetened fruit yogurt can have up to 47 grams of carbs, which is even higher than a comparable serving of ice cream. However, choosing plain Greek yogurt will keep digestible carbs under 10 grams.”
Moral of the story: You can have full-fat plain Greek yogurt in moderation. A 1/2 cup of plain greek yogurt in a recipe isn’t going to sabotage your Keto diet.
Tips & Variations to make the best keto mini cheesecakes
I like adding two blueberries to the top of each cheesecake (which I did include in the nutrition facts). You can also try making Keto Cheesecake Bites with strawberries, blackberries or raspberries.
You can insert popsicle sticks into each cheesecake before freezing them. It’s fun little cheesecake popsicles, but to be honest, I don't usually use them because I eat mine in two quick bites haha.
How to serve Keto Icecube tray cheesecake minis
Be sure to initially freeze the no-bake cheesecake minis for at least 2 hours or even overnight. Once they are frozen, use a butter knife to loosen the edges of each cube and pop them out.
The best way to enjoy your Keto Cheesecake bites is by putting them on a plate and letting them thaw for just a few minutes. This way you don't get cold teeth and brain freeze lol and they have a nice creamy, melt-in-your-mouth consistency.
Storing and freezing cheesecake bites
Store them in a freezer-friendly container rather than leaving them uncovered in the ice cube tray.
