How to Make Keto Eggnog Cheesecakes
Step 1: Prepare the Crust
- Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 silicone cupcake liners.
- Combine the almond flour, flaxseed meal, and granulated erythritol in a medium bowl.
- Stir in the melted butter and egg until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough evenly among the muffin liners and press it into an even layer.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Let the crusts cool completely.
Step 2: Make the Eggnog Filling
- While baking the crusts, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and nutmeg until smooth.
- Add the heavy cream, egg, and rum essence (if using). Beat until well combined.
Step 3: Assemble and Chill
- Pour the eggnog filling evenly over the cooled crusts.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Let the cheesecakes cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow them to firm up.
Step 4: Add the Finishing Touch
- Once the cheesecakes are chilled, pipe or spoon keto whipped cream on top.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of nutmeg.
STORING: Store in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.
Tips and Variations
- Don’t have rum essence? Use rum extract or bourbon extract, or omit it altogether.
- Make it festive: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or ground cloves to the whipped cream.
- Storage: These cheesecakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
