Okay so how many raspberries are blackberries would you recommend or strawberries is that permitted? And how would I do that would I do it in butter or water or how would I do that
Strawberry or modified raspberry cheesecake keto friendly recipe
I usually only eat a small handful of berries. Maybe a quarter cup. Just make a good Keto Cheesecake and add a few fresh berries of your choice with a little whipped cream. It’s delicious! You could cook them with a bit of xyletol or other sweetener but it’s not necessary.
I rarely eat dessert, but I do like berries occasionally, and I do make desserts when I entertain. The topping I make for my mixed berry pavlova would be equally good on a cheesecake.
To serve 8 - 10
2 x 250g raspberries
250g blackberries
250g strawberries
250g blueberries
1 tbsp erythritol
1tsp vanilla bean paste
Into a minblender put any fruit that is a little too soft and approximately 250g raspberries. Add 1tbsp erythitol and blend. Push the fruit through a metal sieve, discard the seeds. Add the vanilla.
Pour the sauce over the berries and gently turn to coat. Leave at room temperature to mascerate.
When you are ready to serve, use a slotted spoon to pile the berries onto your cheesecake and drizzle any remaining sauce over!
According to Cronometer, 1 1/10th would be
38 calories and 5.4g net carbs.
Personally I always put by a serving of berries for myself to have with cream and serve my guests the pavlova.
I have never made a keto cheesecake, let me know how it turns out! Don’t forget to take a picture.
Yes I’m going to take pictures of the entire process from making it to the finished product. I didn’t know strawberries were permitted. I knew raspberries blueberries and blackberries but I didn’t know strawberries were okay
Hi, there is a great lady on Youtube who made a ‘fake strawberry’ cheesecake. Check out her channel…Keto in the UK or by searching for Ginger’ keto channel. A great source of recipes that are UK based but I am sure could be converted. Lovely lady with a great personality and also a member here, I believe.
She does not use the whole fruit but you could make that one and slice up a strawberry on the top, this would at least give you the taste without massive carbs.
Chia jam might also help but I have never tried it.
Hope you find a solution
@Digital_Dave makes cheesecakes to sell and he modified his recipe for keto. I’ve made it and really good!
As for a strawberry topping, I just spooned a little bit of sugar-free strawberry jam on top. Doesn’t take much anymore as my sensitivity to sugar is much greater on keto now.
In small quantities. Blackberries are best of all and luckily my favourite!
Thanks, Jane. … And as far as fruit goes, sure, it isn’t the friendliest Keto-Food. But like a lot of other things, it can indeed be eaten in moderation. Here’s a link to the DietDoctors.com site, that breaks down which fruits are better as far as their carb counts go. Or simply the Best and Worst.
I eat my wild blackberries with homemade yogurt without guilt.
Your cheesecakes are AMAZING plain, but others with a bit of a sweet tooth appreciate some SF jam on top. May not pass muster with the keto police but I am all about lifetime sustainability these days, not fat loss.
I do not trust myself to make a Cheesecake because it is my all time favourite desert and so I would eat too much of it.
In am thinking maybe for November 2020, on my 56th birthday (I am 54 atm turning 55 this year) I will make one. By then I might still not be at goal weight (but I will be a lot closer then I am now!).
For now; once in a while I have eaten 2 tablespoons of cream cheese in a bowl with 6 frozen raspberries, and I take about 10 minutes to eat this, and psych myself out that I am eating raspberry cheesecake and it works just fine for me =).
Oh my gosh I can’t wait to make my cheesecake bars this Friday. I’m doing it for two reasons. One I want to feel satisfied and don’t deprive myself and to I’ve been doing a very good job on my lifestyle. And this is a lifestyle so I’m in it for the Long Haul. Awesome I get paid on Friday
You really don’t even need a recipe…
Throw some cream cheese in a bowl. Add a shot of heavy cream, a teaspoon of real vanilla extract, 8 or 10 drops of Sucralose (stevia, monkfruit, and every other sweetener sucks… Who me, opinionated ? ) Mix in some blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, or raspberries, your choice… Oh, or a shot of real lemon extract… Or, a teaspoon of maple extract… Mix, chill…
Bam ! Awesome instant keto dessert
Wow I have all those things right now I was waiting on Friday so when I get paid I can buy some erythritol sweetener
Erythritol sounds like medicine lol
Splenda is where it’s at Or just get liquid Sucralose drops and cut the tiny bit of maltodextrin out to be truly zero carbs.
It’s cheaper, tastes better, and it’s great for Keto.
This is the granular form, so like regular sugar form. There is also the powdered form that is like icing sugar. I have both; although for now I don’t use any artificial sweeteners at all as it was messing my weight loss up. They are both good for recipes though. I bought both as some recipes call for one type, and some recipes call for the other =).
Hey Jacqueline, you didn’t have to remove that… I have pretty thick skin lol
It’s okay if you think I’m crazy… I think the rest of you are crazy, when it comes to artificial sweeteners too ! Dirty Keto is where its at ! lol
Haha! Sorry Chris, it seemed a bit churlish when I thought about it. I just didn’t want anyone new to think erythritol wasn’t a good sweetener when it is.
We all have our favourites
I don’t mind crazy!
lol Its all good. I’m going to completely honest… I haven’t actually tried erythritol, its just that sucralose tastes so good (so close to real sugar… maybe because it is made from real sugar ?) so easy to come by, proven to be so safe, so cheap, and so easy to get (on Amazon of course
lol) I just don’t understand why it has been getting such a bad rap in recent years ??? I’m bummed that I cant find more products made with it ?
But I sure can dump it on, or in anything I want to be sweeter
