Keto Basque Cheesecake is a crust-less, ultra creamy and delicious dessert that is both keto-friendly and easy to make.
The Keto Basque Cheesecake is a remarkable dessert that has gained popularity for its unique characteristics. This cheesecake stands out with its rustic appearance and luscious texture. Unlike traditional cheesecakes, the Keto Basque Cheesecake is intentionally burnt on the outside, creating a beautifully caramelized crust while retaining a creamy and melt-in-your-mouth interior.
Known for its simplicity, the Keto Basque Cheesecake requires minimal ingredients and preparation. It is a delightful fusion of flavors where the sweetness of the cream cheese and the rich vanilla undertones come together to create a harmonious taste. This cheesecake is notably different from its counterparts, as it aims for decadent flavor rather than a visually perfect presentation.
The Keto Basque Cheesecake offers a delightful contrast to traditional cheesecakes. Its irresistibly smooth texture and slightly burnt caramel notes make it a favorite among dessert enthusiasts. Whether you enjoy it plain or pair it with your favorite low-carb toppings, the Keto Basque Cheesecake is a must-try dessert that will leave you craving for more.

this is my favorite cheesecake, thanks!
So happy to hear that!
This was not good. I didn’t expect it to be an exact match to cheesecake with sugar but this had a spongy, unpleasant texture. The taste was not entirely terrible but I just couldn’t eat it. 🙁
Oh no! It sounds like something may have gone wrong, as this cheesecake definitely has a more creamy consistency. Sorry it did not turn out the way it should have!
I just started keto and was craving cheesecake, this recipe was absolutely perfect!
