Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon erythritol or another keto-friendly sweetener
  • Pinch of salt
  • For the filling:
  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2/3 cup erythritol or adjust to taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries plus a few extra for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan lightly. Don’t skip this or you’ll have a dramatic crust escape scene.
  • Make the crust: mix almond flour, melted butter, sweetener, and a pinch of salt until it clumps. Press it evenly into the pan. Bake for 10 minutes to set, then cool slightly.
  • Beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add erythritol, eggs, vanilla, and lemon zest. Mix just until combined—overmixing makes a tough cheesecake, and nobody wants that drama.
  • Gently fold in 3/4 cup of blueberries. Don’t smash them; you want little sweet bursts in every bite.
  • Pour filling over the crust and smooth the top. Scatter the remaining blueberries on top for a pretty finale.
  • Bake for 45–50 minutes until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle. The middle will firm up as it cools, promise.
  • Cool completely at room temp, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is better). Slice with a clean knife for neat pieces.
