INGREDIENT NOTES:

XANTHAN GUM:

  • It helps to thicken the topping and makes a glossy consistency with zero sugar. You can swap it with the guar gum in similar amounts and also with psyllium husk powder, but they may change the texture.

CHERRIES:

  • They provide the tartness and natural flavor to this dessert. We can also utilize the raspberries or strawberries in smaller quantities instead; they will also work properly.

HEAVY CREAM:

  • This ingredient makes the cheesecake filling richer and creamier firm texture that works for keto. I normally use high-fat coconut cream as an alternative.

ALMOND FLOUR:

  • This has a reduced carb level and a little nutty flavor. You may replace it with a tiny amount of coconut flour, which will slightly change the texture.

CREAM CHEESE:

  • It is an important ingredient in the filling of cheesecake provide a smooth and creamy texture. Substitute it with the ricotta or mascarpone cheese to maintain a low-carb diet.
