Keto Blueberry Cheesecake (No Bake) (2024)

This easy keto blueberry cheesecake is perfect for a larger gathering! It requires no baking and is bursting with blueberry flavor. One slice is just 4.8g net carbs. A wonderfully creamy low carb cheesecake that simply tastes of summer.

With the recent spell of good weather, I've been making most use of my garden. We're loving being able to have friends over again! I served this low carb blueberry cheesecake last weekend and it went down a treat with both low carb dieters and the carb loving bunch of teenagers.

My family actually called it the king of all cakes! But trust me, despite its indulgent appearance this keto cheesecake with blueberries is so simple to make.

Why This Recipe Works

SIMPLE. This easy no-bake cheesecake does not even require gelatine to set. It is suitable for novice keto bakers! It requires only 15 minutes of prep. All you need is time for it to set - ideally overnight.

SO MUCH FLAVOR. The gluten-free, buttery crust is made from a mix of almond and coconut flour. For the filling, I mixed some of the blueberry topping through a portion of the cheesecake batter and added dollops as I spread it with the rest of the filling. It is out of this world good.

Ingredients

Let's do a quick run-through of the ingredients:

• Almond flour and coconut flour - These two low carb flours always work well together. You can use super-fine almond flour or regular ground almonds.
• Powdered sweetener - I used an erythritol and monk fruit sweetener, which is a 1:1 sugar replacement. You could also use xylitol or allulose.
• Melted butter - for the cheesecake crust.
• Full fat cream cheese - This HAS to be full fat, otherwise the cake won't set.
• Heavy whipping cream - We call this double cream
• Vanilla extract and salt - Optional: 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
• Blueberries - I used frozen. If you're using fresh berries, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.
• Xanthan gum - This is important because it helps the blueberry sauce set. You can use guar gum instead, or twice the amount of ground chia seeds.

CHEESECAKE CRUST. Place all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add the melted butter and mix to form a flakey crumb. I like to use my hands here.

Grease an 8-inch / 20cm non-stick loose bottom or springform baking pan with melted butter. I also lined the base first with a cut circle of parchment paper.

Press the base mix into the bottom and smooth with the back of the spoon to get the edges nice and neat.

FILLING. Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese with the powdered low carb sweetener and vanilla. Don’t over-whisk, beat just enough to combine.

In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy whipping cream to soft peaks, then fold into the cream cheese mixture with a spatula.

BLUEBERRY SAUCE. Add the frozen berries to saucepan with powdered sweetener and water. Simmer on a medium heat until the berries are just soft.

Remove from the heat and drain some of the liquid. Sprinkle over the xanthan gum, stir well and allow to fully cool to thicken. Placing the sauce in the fridge will speed this up.

Once the sauce is fully cooled, put about 1 cup of filling in a clean bowl. Pour in ¼ cup of the sauce and combine.

ASSEMBLY. Add the dollops of the vanilla cheesecake filling to the base interspersed with dollops of blueberry cheesecake filling.

You don’t need to be too precise here. I added a few white dollops on top of the blueberry dollops too. Level with a spatula to form a smooth top.

Top with the remaining blueberry sauce.

COOLING. Place the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight to firm up.

Variations

Use different berries: This recipe would also work with my no cook raspberry jam (double the amount of chia seeds in the recipe to make the jam thicker).

For a strawberry version, use this sugar free strawberry cheesecake recipe.

Almond flour crust: If you don't want to use coconut flour, replace it with 1 cup / 100g additional almond flour.

Nut free crust: Use ½ cup (50g) sesame seed flour and ¾ cup (60g) desiccated coconut instead of the almond flour. Blitz it in a food processor first so it's nice and fine.

Make blueberry cheesecake bars by using a rectangular pan instead of a springform pan!

Storage

Refrigerator: Store this cake in the fridge for up to 3 days.
