Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated erythritol
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol (for sauce)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, melted butter, and salt. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and erythritol together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and sour cream until fully incorporated.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust in the springform pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
- For the strawberry sauce, combine sliced strawberries, erythritol, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Once the cheesecake is chilled, remove it from the springform pan and serve slices topped with the strawberry sauce.
Notes
- For a different flavor, try adding a teaspoon of almond extract instead of vanilla.
- You can substitute the strawberry sauce with other berries like raspberries or blueberries for a variety of toppings.
