- Almond flour: This makes a nutty, wholesome base for our keto-friendly crust.

- Cream Cheese: Cream cheese is the main ingredient. It makes the cheesecake creamy and velvety.

- Pumpkin: I add a good amount of pumpkin puree for that warm, comforting autumn flavor.
- Vanilla Extract: This brings depth and warmth, boosting the overall taste of the cheesecake.

🔪 How To Make Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake

- Preheat the oven to 325 F.
- Mix the crust mixture in a large bowl, including the almond flour, monkfruit sweetener, and melted butter for the crust, until well combined. Press into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9” springform pan and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling in a mixing bowl by creaming together cream cheese, keto brown sugar, and monkfruit powdered sugar until smooth with an electric mixer.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the pumpkin, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust, then return to the oven to bake for 45-50 minutes or until the filling is set but still jiggles. Turn the oven off, open the oven door, and allow the cheesecake to cool for one hour before cooling completely at room temperature (about one hour).
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
- When ready to serve, whip the whipping cream on high with the powdered sweetener until stiff peaks form.
- Serve a sprinkle of cinnamon on top of this creamy keto pumpkin cheesecake.
