Keto Key Lime Cheesecake

 

 Keto Key Lime Pie is a recipe that I’ve wanted to bring to life for a long time. It’s sweet, tart, and refreshing. It’s everything I want in a keto dessert. Best of all, it passes the most important test a new keto dessert has to go through.

INGREDIENTS

Filling

  • 1 envelope gelatin
  • 1/2 cup Swerve Confectioners
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup key lime juice
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream


Crust

  • 1 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 5 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 tbsp Swerve Brown
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Mix all of the dry ingredients for the crust. Then, add the melted butter and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
  • Liberally butter a 9-inch pie pan. Press the crust mixture into the pan making sure that it is of uniform thickness.
  • Cover the rim of the crust with foil to prevent the edges from burning. Bake at 350ºF until golden brown.
  • Mix the dry ingredients for the filling. Separately, mix together the egg yolks, lime juice, and water. Then, whisk together the dry mixture and the wet mixture.
  • In a sauce pan over medium heat bring the mixture to a boil while stirring continously. Remove from heat.
  • Place saucepan in an ice bath to cool it while stirring continuously. Remove when peaks form.
  • In a separate bowl beat 1 cup of heavy whipping cream until peaks form. Then, gently fold lime mixture into the whipped cream with a spatula.
  • Once combined and smooth pour the filling into the crust and place in refrigerator until firm. Store chilled.
