A One Minute Keto / Low Carb Cheesecake




Well, it does take very slightly longer than one minute … but I'm sure you will like this quick and easy keto/low carb cheesecake. You can eat it plain or with the addition of some low carb fruits, raspberries for example.

Ingredients:
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp. heavy (double) cream
1 egg
½ tsp lemon juice
¼ tsp vanilla
2-4 tbsp. sugar substitute such as powdered erythritol or stevia (mix two or more for a better flavour)

Method:
Combine all ingredients in a 1.5 cup microwave-safe bowl, and whisk until smooth. Place in microwave and cook on high for 90 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds to remix ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Excellent topped with fresh fruit and whipped cream, or a homemade low carb chocolate sauce. (Count extra carbs if additions are made).

I'd love to try this but don't have a microwave. Could using a double boiler work? Or a regular nonstick sauce pan?

Hello Carol, many thanks for your comment and question.
I don't know if this recipe would work out ok in a double boiler or non-sick sauce pan … you may like to try it and see.

I can give you two suggestions for similar recipes you may be interested in.
1) If you don't want the oven on but would love to make a cheesecake, no bake lemon cheesecake could be for you!
No Bake Lemon Cheesecake, make a large cake or smaller individual ramekins

2) Vanilla and Raspberry Sponge Keto (Mug) Cake … which can be cooked in the oven

Hope these give you low carb/keto food for thought :)

All the best Jan

Sue said...

Ooo you can't beat a good cheescake, I would definitely add lemon and lime 'cos I like a bit of sour! Thanks for the tip about adding different types of sugar substitute, I didn't know that xx

This recipe sounds so good, Jan. Even though I make lots of desserts, I actually have watched my carb intake for the last twenty years.
Thank you for your visit to my post. Happy weekend to you.
