I'm a huge fan of almond extract and sliced almonds in many other desserts..especially my Keto Almond Cake . So when I thought up this cheesecake idea, I already KNEW it was going to be a home-run.

This is my standard Keto No Bake Cheesecake.. except this time I used sour cream instead of heavy cream in the filling, which I feel gives it an extra “tang” that I love. 

I also of course added almond extract and used almond flour for the crust of this cake. Almond flour is already a fantastic base for any keto cheesecake so I didn't have to modify that part.

But I did add toasted almonds on top of this cheesecake that really made all the difference! 

The crunch along with the silky smooth cheesecake and sweet crust makes for the perfect bite!

This is a cheesecake you could serve to family members not following a ketogenic diet and I can guarantee they will still LOVE it.

Ingredients In No Bake Keto Almond Cheesecake

  • Almond Flour 
  • Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener – You can use any sweetener you prefer. This is just one of my favourites! It's super fine and blends seamlessly into no bake desserts without any granular texture.
  • Cinnamon 
  • Salt
  • Salted Butter – You can use unsalted as well, just be sure to add an additional pinch of salt.
  • Cream Cheese – Make sure this is at room temperature or gently softened for best results.
  • Vanilla Extract – Pure or artificial both work just as well.
  • Almond Extract – I prefer pure but artificial also works!
  • Sour Cream – Heavy cream can also replace sour cream in this recipe.
  • Gelatin Powder – I use the Organika brand!
  • Sliced Almonds – Shredded coconut also goes well.

How To Store No Bake Keto Almond Cheesecake

  • Store this keto no bake cheesecake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days (after the cake has set and been sliced) OR freeze and thaw later for a future snack.
  • If freezing, it's best to freeze slices flat on a baking sheet uncovered just until solid then move to an airtight container and place a piece of wax paper on top of the slices to prevent freezer burn. When later thawing the cake, remove the piece of wax paper and leave the container uncovered on the counter until thawed.
