Keto Blueberry Cheesecake Ingredients

There are three parts to make this Keto Blueberry Cheesecake; the almond crust, vanilla cheesecake and the blueberry lemon swirl. This is what you will need for each part:

Almond Crust

  • almond flour
  • almonds
  • butter
  • cinnamon
  • sukrin gold

Vanilla Cheesecake

  • cream cheese
  • sour cream
  • powdered monk fruit / erythritol sweetener
  • vanilla
  • lemon juice
  • eggs

Blueberry Swirl

  • blueberries – fresh or frozen
  • monk fruit / erythritol sweetener
  • lemon zest

Sukrin GoldSukrin Gold is a low carb sweetener that is made to mimic brown sugar. I use it all the time in recipes like this Low Carb BBQ Sauce or these No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Freezer Cookies. If you don’t have any, you could replace it with the monk fruit / erythritol.

Monk Fruit / Erythritol Sweetener – This is my go-to sugar free sweetener. My favourite brands are either Lakanto or SoNourished. Either way, I buy their granular version and make my own powdered when I need it! To make powdered, simply grab a clean coffee grinder, add about 1/4 cup granular sweetener and blitz for a couple of moments.. that’s it! Perfectly powdered sweetener, ready for your sweet treats!

How to make a Keto Blueberry Cheesecake

Cheesecake making, or as I like to call it, Cheesecaking 🤓, is definitely a process, but it’s a labour of love. Start with making the sauce so that it can cool for when the cheesecake layer is ready.

Blueberry lemon sauce

Combine the blueberries in a small saucepan with the granular erythritol and lemon zest. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes. Use an immersion blender to puree the sauce until smooth, then set that goodness aside.

Almond Crust

Preheat your oven to 350° and move the rack to the center. Cover the bottom of an 8″ springform pan and as much of the sides as possible with one sheet of heavy duty tin foil. This is to prevent leaks when the cheesecake is baked in a water bath. Spray the inside of the pan with oil and set aside.

In a medium bowl combine melted butter, almond flour, finely minced almonds, cinnamon and sukrin gold. Mix well then press into the bottom of the prepared springform pan with a fork. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then remove and set aside.

Vanilla cheesecake

Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment (or a big ol’ bowl and an electric hand mixer.. no, please don’t try to do this with a whisk 😬) whip the room temperature cream cheese until smooth, with no lumps remaining. Scrape the bowl.

Add sour cream, stir that in well, then mix in the powdered erythritol until smooth. Avoid over mixing and scrape the bowl often to avoid unmixed batter that can get stuck to the bottom of the bowl. Mix in 1 egg at a time while scraping in between additions, then stir in the vanilla and lemon juice. Pour into the springform pan, over top of the crust.

Swirl it

Let’s make this beauty! Dollop the blueberry sauce all around the cheesecake in little amounts, about 1/2 to 1 tbsp each.

Now take a butter knife or chop stick and swirl it back and forth until all the little blobs of blueberry sauce have been swirled into the cheesecake and you’ve created a beautiful design.

Bake it

Bring a kettle of water to boil, then place your cheesecake pan inside a baking dish. Once the kettle is ready, pour the boiling water into the baking dish, just until there is about a cm of water.

You want to make sure the top of the water doesn’t reach the top of the tin foil, otherwise it will go inside the pan and ruin your cheesecake… Not a lot of people like soggy cheesecake… 😬

Place the whole baking dish inside the oven, on the center rack, and bake for 45 minutes. The the outer edges will be puffy and the center of the cheesecake will still be jiggly.

Leave the cheesecake inside the oven, turn it off and prop the door open just a crack with a wooden spoon. Let the cheesecake sit inside the oven for 1 hour, then it can be removed and set on the counter for another hour before being refrigerated for a few hours, or overnight.

When ready to serve, remove the sides of the springform pan, then slice into 12 and enjoy!

Expert Tips

  1. You really can’t go wrong when making cheesecake. However, there are certain things you can do to drastically increase the dreaminess this Keto Blueberry Cheesecake brings. I’ve listed them in the recipe, but if you want some pro tips, check out my Cheesecake Tips post.
  2. Make sure you have all your ingredients at room temperature. This is important because you want each ingredient to combine easier. The easier they combine, the less you have to beat your mixture. The less you beat your mixture the less air bubbles you have and the more likely you are to have a lump free cheesecake.
  3. It’s important to get scrape your bowl often and make sure your spatula is getting all the way down to the very bottom of your bowl. Cream cheese can get stuck down there, making it difficult to mix into the batter the more liquid ingredients you add.
  4. Have fun with the swirl! The more, smaller dollops of blueberry sauce, the better.
  5. Be very cautious with the water bath – Make sure to not pour too much boiling water into the pan. Keep below the top of the tin foil so that the water cannot find its way inside the cheesecake.
  6. Don’t over bake that beauty! The edges will be puffy and may start to crack and the center will still be jiggly. It’s ready! Shut that oven off!
  7. It’s important to let your cheesecake cool completely before trying to dive in – I know, it’s a long wait, but a wait worth having!

Swirl flavour ideas

This Keto Blueberry Cheesecake is absolutely interchangeable. Sweet, right?What berries do you love? What is in season right now?

You can absolutely switch out the blueberries for the same amount of raspberries, strawberries or blackberries. I would recommend keeping the lemon with any flavour change up. As for the carbs? Here is what a slice of each looks like:

  • Blueberry: 7.1 g net carbs.
  • Raspberry: 5.9 g net carbs.
  • Strawberry 6.1 g net carbs.
  • Blackberry 5.7 g net carbs.

*If you choose raspberries or blackberries, I recommend pushing them through a strainer like this one instead of using an immersion blender, to remove all the seeds before it is cooled and swirled into your cheesecake.

How to store Keto Blueberry Cheesecake

Refrigerator

You want to keep your cheesecake in the fridge. Once it has fully cooled to the refrigerator temperature, it can be wrapped tightly with plastic or kept in an air tight container.

You don’t want to wrap it while it’s still warm, because the cheesecake will form condensation which will drip from the plastic, causing super ugly marks on all your beautiful work! It will last for 5-6 days in the fridge. Got leftovers?

Freezer

What?! You’ve got leftovers?! Lucky you!!! I rarely get cheesecake leftovers. Apparently I have to stop inviting people over when I make them! Every now and again I’ll have leftover cheesecake and the best way to keep it for longer than 5-6 days is by freezing it. Here’s how:

Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Slice the cheesecake into single serve slices and place around the baking sheet. Make sure not to let them touch each other, or they will stick together. Freeze until firm, then wrap each piece in wax paper and place inside large freezer safe ziploc bags.

This Keto Blueberry Cheesecake will last 6-8 months in the freezer. Well, that is how long it would stay good for, but who knows how long it will last! I’m sure you’ll have this creamy, blueberry goodness, whispering your name late into the night…

      1. Aleta says:

        Thanks Amanda!

    27. Daniela says:

      Rad love the swirls that the blueberries make! And really appreciate the in process shots! Def wanna try this oven the summer :).

      1. Aleta says:

        I hope you love it as much as I do!

    28. Angela says:

      How would you adjust the bake time to make them into individual cupcakes instead? I don’t have a springform pan.

      Can’t wait to make this!

      Thanks!

      Angela

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Angela! I have not made these into cupcake sizes before, but they would be delicious! I would recommend you bake them for about 20 minutes to start. The insides will still be jiggly and the edges may start to crack a little bit. Let me know how they turn out!

    29. Marcie says:

      Hi.. I’m not a fan of almond flour. Can i omit the crust? Will that change the baking time or need for water bath?

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Marcie! I’m sorry it took me so long to respond, I was away for the weekend with no internet! Ahh!! You can absolutely just omit the crust. The baking time or method will not change. The cooking method / water bath is how cheesecake is baked so perfectly, creamy as possible without the toasted top.
        I hope you love it!!

    30. Denise Halwas says:

      I tried this cheesecake recipe today… all I can say is we (hubs and me) are gobsmacked at how wonderful this recipe is! Followed it to a tee and while the cooling process was hard to take… (we both wanted a piece so badly) we held out and it was exceptional, I mean exceptional!!! I had made too much of the blueberry swirl sauce and ended up using the excess as a drizzle on the individual slices. Yum Yum and so Yum! Will be sharing this on my keto group chats. Thanks so much for all the effort put into developing keto recipes! It takes time and effort and we on the other end appreciate all your efforts. Blue ribbon win on this one!!

      1. Aleta says:

        Wow, I legit had goosebumps reading this. You have no idea how much I appreciate the feedback! It gives me renewed excitement to continue to do what it is I love to do! So thank you, so much Denise, and glad you enjoyed it! <3<3<3

      5 stars
      This cheesecake is out of this world delicious as well as gorgeous! Those lucky enough to taste it (all non-keto BTW) thought it was wonderful too! I thought I had enough blueberries but I was a little short so I added raspberries to make up the difference, 1/2 a cup. Followed directions exactly and I had no cracks at all. Next up I’m trying it with strawberries! Can’t wait for that on either. Thank you so much for this amazing recipe!! XOXO

      1. Aleta says:

        Thanks so much Rose, I’m so glad you all liked it so much! Love the idea of the addition of the raspberries.. yum!

    33. Julie says:

      What would be the cooking difference if I split the mix into two 4” springform pans?

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Julie,
        I have never tried baking cheesecake in a 4” springform so I am not sure how long they would need to bake for. You could try 20-25 minutes and go from there. The center will still be jiggly but the outer edge will be puffy when it has baked long enough.
        Just be sure to leave it in the warm oven, slightly propped open, for 1 hour after it has baked.
        Let me know how it turns out!

      Hi Aleta,
      I made this cheesecake this weekend for a small dinner with friends and it was a major hit! Everyone loved it including me, and I’m not a huge cheesecake fan. I’ll be making this again , but would love to know how I can incorporate chocolate into the swirl Any ideas?

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Kay, I’m so glad you all liked it so much!
        What a great idea, there are a couple ways to incorporate chocolate into the swirl.
        Start by melting unsweetened or 80-90% dark chocolate and set it aside to cool, then:
        1) Remove 1/4 – 1/2 cup of the cheesecake batter before pouring it into the springform pan. Mix the melted chocolate into the removed batter and then place it in a piping bag. Pipe blobs of chocolate batter all over the cheesecake along with the blueberry sauce. Swirl them all around together.
        2) You can try dropping portions of the melted chocolate directly onto the cheesecake with the blobs of blueberry sauce and then swirl it all together, though the chocolate may spread out quite a bit depending on how it reacts with the cheesecake.
        Good luck and enjoy!

      Hi Aleta! I made this cheesecake for my husband’s birthday. It was good, but I’m wondering if the temperature to cook the cheesecake was supposed to be at 300 degrees rather than 350? My top was pretty brown. Otherwise it was tasty!

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Shauna, I’m glad you enjoyed the cheesecake! Very odd about the browned top, 350 was correct. I wonder if perhaps your oven bakes hot or if the cheesecake was positioned higher in the oven?

    36. Noreen says:

      I didn’t see any directions/instructions in making the crust for the Blueberry Cheesecake adding-in the almonds and salt, so just added in with the almond flour. Just FYI!

      I’ve now made this three times, once with blueberries, once with strawberries, and once with raspberries. It is a flawless recipe and we have really been enjoying our nightly treats whilst in this quarantine we find ourselves in. Thank you so much for sharing!

      How much of cream cheese i have to use i don’t understand

      1. Aleta says:

        Hi Alina, you need to use 24 ounces of cream cheese in total, so 3 bricks of cream cheese. They come in 8 oz ( 250g ) bricks typically.

    39. Cindi says:

      Curious to know, if I don’t have or don’t want to use the chopped almonds should I add additional almond flour?

        Hey Cindi, the chopped almonds are more for texture than anything else. If you mix up the crust ingredients and find it too wet, you may need to add a 1/4 cup extra almonds flour, although I don’t think this would be the case. It should be fine just to leave them out 🙂 Enjoy!

      Hello,
      I made you cheesecake this morning to enjoy as dessert for mothers day tomorrow.
      I baked it for the designated 45 minutes but only had a 7in springform pan. I hope it turns out ok.
      The outer edges were the slightest brown but the center was still pretty jiggly although when touched it was not wet so we will see.
      Is the idea of overnight in the fridge so that the center finishes firming up?
      Can’t wait to taste it

      Flawless cheesecake recipe. I made it the other day as I was desperate for a great keto dessert. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. If I didn’t know differently, I couldn’t tell it was keto. Creamy and delish…..

        I am so glad to hear it Barbara!

      Would I have to use full-fat cream cheese? I have three 8oz blocks of cream cheese that have 1/3 less fat that I was wanting to use.

      1. Aleta says:

        That should work just fine 🙂

      Hi, I’m not a baker but wanted to make this delicious sounding cheesecake for a keto-dieting friend. Your instructions regarding “covering” the spring form pan doesn’t lead a non-baker to assume you meant the outside of the pan. When I read the same sentence aloud to several non-baker friends, all concluded it meant the inside of the pan. I now know after looking up further instructions regarding a water bath for cheesecake that the foil was supposed to be on the outside of the pan. Too bad I didn’t look that up before the crust and batter were inside the pan. I might suggest adding the word “outside” to your instructions. It’s in the oven now and hoping the foil can easily be removed from the cheesecake.

      1. Aleta says:

        Hey Trish, Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I sure hope the cheesecake turned out okay!

        1. Trish Thatcher says:

          It did! I sprayed the foil with cooking spray and it peeled right off the sides. Everyone enjoyed it – thanks!

          1. Aleta says:

            Oh fewf I’m so glad!

      I made this!
      My only changes were I used granulated monkfruit sweetener in the crust. I also did not have an immersion blender for the berries so I used my nutribullet.
      It was SPECTACULAR. The cheesecake was delicious. My favorite part of this cake is the crushed almond cinammon crust – absolutely decadent!
      I definitely see myself remaking this, probably with strawberries next time! I have to practice my swirl skills!

      1. Alisha says:

        I also put the foil inside the pan. I had no idea you meant to put it outside the pan. :/
        It turned out okay tho. I cut the foil off the edge of the springform pan, so I just need to peel it from the bottom of every slice, every time I take a slice out.

        1. Aleta says:

          Someone else just brought this to my attention – I have been meaning to correct this in the recipe card so that it is more clear!

      2. Aleta says:

        Hey Alisha! I am so glad to hear you liked the cheesecake so much – it sure is fun to play with those beautiful swirls!

      Wondering if dreams come true while eating dessert and being keto? They do as a result of this cheesecake. I’ve made it twice already and both times, it has not disappointed. Thank you for this amazing recipe! I didn’t even have to lower my standards like I normally do for keto desserts, lol.

      1. Aleta says:

        Wow I am so glad you love this cheesecake so much! It’s pretty awesome being able to enjoy something as delicious as blueberry swirled cheesecake and not feel guilty!

    47. Susan B Gerber says:

      Is it possible that I can bake this in muffin tins creating 12 mini cheese cakes?

      1. Aleta says:

        Hi Susan! Although I have never done it before myself, I do know other people have which much success! You can bake them at the same temperature, but they will most likely only tale about 15-20 minutes to bake. Just like the big cheesecake, they should be jiggly in the center with slightly puffy edges. Allow them to cool just like the big cheesecake 🙂
        Let me know how they turn out!

    48. Sue says:

      I am wondering about the number of slices per cake……I am watching the carbs closely. 8 or 10 or 12 slices? Thank you!

      1. Aleta says:

        12 slices Sue 🙂

      Oh My God! This cheesecake was so so good. It turned out perfect and it looks incredible.
      My partner who does not like cheesecake all that much said it’s the best cheesecake he ever had and asked for multiple servings lol Thank you for all the helpful tips as well 🙂
