Sugar Free Keto Cheesecake

If you’re a cheesecake lover like me, sometimes you want just a serving right? You don’t necessarily feel like making a large standard cheesecake with 8 or 12 servings.

Some days or nights you just want a piece, am I right? In fact, I could eat a piece every night if I can fit it into my macros for the day! But maybe you’re like me and having a large cheesecake in the house might be too tempting to not indulge in every day or maybe you just won’t be able to stick to one serving?

Here’s the solution! A 2 minute cheesecake that makes just 2 servings!

Enjoy your piece and save the other or serve the other to your spouse. Whatever you decide it’s worth a try to curb that craving for creamy delicious sugar free cheesecake!

I’ve made a few attempts to get just the right texture for these little cheesecakes and I have to say it’s just as good as a slice of my basic Sugar Free Cheesecake that serves 12!  Top with some delicious Sugar Free Whipped Cream and a few berries and indulge without the guilt!

2 Minute Sugar Free Cheesecake FAQs

Can I make this dairy free?

I haven’t attempted to make this recipe dairy free but I am guessing you could swap the cream cheese with vegan cream cheese and replace the sour cream and heavy cream with canned coconut cream. I do have a Dairy Free Sugar Free Cheesecake recipe you might like.

Can I leave out the xanthan gum?

Yes you could leave out the xanthan gum, but it does help give it a nice creamy texture.

Can I change the low carb sweetener?

Yes you can use any low carb sweetener you prefer. I have a Sweetener Guide and Conversion Chart to help you figure out how much to use of other sweeteners.

Low Carb Cheesecake

Whether you’re just trying to eat less sugary desserts or you’re on a low carb diet, this recipe will work for you. Just 1 gram of natural sugar coming from the lactose in the cheese and cream and 3 total carbs. This fits well in any keto diet.  

If you’re worried about high fat, I would recommend learning more about healthy fats that satisfy and this dessert will be completely fulfilling so you won’t feel the need to indulge in a second piece.

How to Make 2 Minute Keto Cheesecake (Microwave Method)

If you’re not opposed to cooking in a microwave then this recipe is for you. But even if you don’t like using microwaves, or simply don’t have one, I’ve provided oven directions as well.

Please note all microwaves vary and your cheesecake may just need 1 minute or an 90 seconds. Always try less and check before cooking it this scrumptious keto cheesecake more. No one wants a dried out cheesecake that’s for sure!

Check it again then microwave another 30 seconds if needed. Mine took exactly 2 minutes total. If it looks like it’s set in the center, let it cool about 5 minutes on counter then refrigerate for 1-2 hours. Add toppings and enjoy!

    Loved this recipe. Quick if you use the microwave and just as delicious if you use the oven. It is perfect for those who can’t or don’t prefer sugar. It was served to a guest as a dessert with whipped cream and she had the other for breakfast with berries.

    Can unflavored Knox gelatine be used in place of xanthan gum? Asking because it came up on search results for xanthan on amazon.
