Table of Contents
I absolutely love this no-bake cheesecake when I'm craving something sweet. It's guilt-free and can be enjoyed plain or with a topping such as sugar-free cranberry sauce or sliced fruit.
This recipe can be made as individual mini keto cheesecakes or as a standard-sized cheesecake. I also ground some almonds to make my own almond flour from scratch.
You can opt for store-bought almond flour if it’s easier, but there’s something really therapeutic and satisfying about making your own flour, whether it’s almond or coconut.
Some other keto desserts with similar ingredients you might like to try are our keto almond flour orange cake and cream cheese lemon fat bombs.

How to Make A No-Bake Cheesecake
Here's how to make keto cheesecake! You can use this same recipe to make a standard-size cheesecake or mini cheesecake.
For a standard size, you can use a 7-inch non-stick, loose-bottom baking tin. For mini cheesecakes, you can use individual ramekins or muffin tins.
Let's get started with our no-bake keto cheesecake recipe!
Step 1
First, we'll make the base. Grab a mixing bowl and add the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, salt, and butter. Stir everything together until well combined.
Step 2
Press the mixture into the bottom of the baking tin, muffin tray, or individual ramekins.
Step 3
Now, we'll make the filling in another mixing bowl. Beat the cream cheese, erythritol, lemon juice, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth.
Step 4
In another mixing bowl, whisk the cream until it doubles in size. Then, gently fold it into the cream cheese filling mixture.
Step 5
Carefully spoon the mixture on top of the base and flatten the top using a spatula. Refrigerate for around 1 hour (40 minutes if using ramekins).
Step 6
Once chilled, enjoy cold and optionally top with fresh low carb fruit. There you have it, the best keto cheesecake recipe you'll ever make!
Keto-Friendly Cheesecake Topping Ideas
I love these keto mini cheesecakes because they're so versatile. Here are some of my favorite topping ideas:
- Warm cranberry sauce. Delicious when drizzled with a low carb warm cranberry sauce. Make your own cranberry sauce that we use in our keto pancakes recipe here.
- Fresh low carb fruit. Slice up your favorite keto-friendly fruits to use as a topping. Raspberries, peaches, and blueberries all work well.
- Keto lemon cheesecake. For a more lemony taste, add extra lemon juice to the filling and top with thinly sliced lemon.
Tips and Tricks
- Make your own flour. As I mentioned at the beginning of this post, there's something therapeutic about taking the time to make your own flour. It's easy and satisfying to do.
- How to make almond flour: You can make your own almond flour by blending blanched almonds in a food processor or blender until it reaches fine, powdery flour.
- How to make coconut flour: You can make your own coconut flour by blending unsweetened dried shredded coconut in a food processor or blender until you’ve reached the consistency of ground rice. You should grind about 2 cups of shredded coconut into ½ cup of flour.
- Use the freezer to speed up chilling. If you're in a hurry, you can put them in the freezer to chill and firm up more quickly
Is Cheesecake Keto-Friendly?
Whenever we release a cheesecake recipe, we always get the question: 'Is cheesecake low carb?"
No! Traditional cheesecake is definitely not keto.
However, our low carb cheesecake is keto-friendly by using almond flour, coconut flour, and Erythritol. This is instead of the graham crackers and sugar used in traditional cheesecakes.
Bake vs. No-Bake Cheesecake
Keto no-bake cheesecake has no batter and is made from a mixture of cream cheese, sour cream, or whipped topping mixed with a sugar substitute.
The ingredients are blended together until smooth before being poured into a dish and chilled. It's quicker, easier, and often more healthy than standard baked cheesecakes.
How long can you keep cheesecake?
This no-bake cheesecake should be consumed within 2 days of being made. Keep it in the fridge and make sure it's well-covered.
You can also freeze it, but I recommend leaving off any toppings and letting it firm up in the fridge first.

I made this with lime instead of lemon and it is freaking amazing! Does not taste like “diet” food. Will definitely make again.

Easy to make. I had sf raspberry sauce in the freezer which I made at an earlier date. Topped off the cheese cake with sf raspberry sauce, delish. Next time may omit the crust.Thanks for sharing.
