If you’re looking for an easy keto dessert recipe, this single serving keto cheesecake is the answer! This no-bake recipe comes together in less than 10 minutes and you can easily double or triple the recipe if you want to share this with a friend!
Whether you’re new to the keto diet or you’re just starting to research recipes, there are a few staple ingredients you’ll want to have in your pantry:
- Almond flour– This is a great flour replacement because it’s low in carbs and high in fat and protein. This is what we’ll use for the crust of our no-bake keto cheesecake!
- Sweetener- To keep your sweet treats keto, you’ll want to use a sweetener like monk fruit, xylitol, erythritol, or stevia. These sweeteners are virtually calorie and carbohydrate free! For this recipe, we’ll be using monk fruit sweetener but feel free to use whatever type you have at home.
- Yogurt- Yogurt can be keto compliant, just make sure you’re choosing plain Greek yogurt or a low carb yogurt. For example, 5oz of plain Greek yogurt contains just 5g of carbs and 11grams of protein. (Did you know Greek yogurt is a great cream cheese alternative?!)
For this No Bake Single Serving Keto Cheesecake recipe, you’ll also need cream cheese, vanilla, and butter.
How to Prepare a Single Serving Keto Cheesecake
This recipe is perfect when you need a sweet treat, but you don’t have a lot of time. Since it’s a no-bake recipe, you can make this recipe in about 10 minutes from start to finish!
You can also make this keto cheesecake ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 6 hours.
I wouldn’t recommend making it a day in advance, because the crust will get a bit soggy.
Best Keto Yogurt Brands
In order for yogurt to be keto compliant, it will need to be unsweetened or sweetened with a low carb sweetener such as monk fruit or stevia.
Here are a few brands that carry keto compliant flavors:
- Oikos Triple Zero
- Fage Plain Greek Yogurt
- Siggi’s Plain Greek Yogurt
- Kroger Carbmaster Yogurt
No Bake Keto Cheesecake Flavors
You can turn this into lemon or lime cheesecake by using plain Greek yogurt and stirring in 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon or lime juice.
You can also try new flavors by using different types of yogurt.
Keep in mind that you need to look for low carb yogurt so be sure it’s not sweetened with sugar.
Once you find a few brands, like the ones listed above, you can have fun trying new flavors!
