Keto Blackberry Cheesecake

Blackberries are one of the lowest carb fruits which makes them perfect for using in this cheesecake recipe.  The combination of rich cheesecake filling and sweet blackberry sauce topping is beyond delicious!

Ever since I began following a ketogenic lifestyle over two years ago, I have been adapting many of my favorite recipes with low carb substitutions like this one.  You can check out my Keto Beginner Guide to see how I got started on my ketogenic journey and lost over 85lbs in less than a year.

Doesn’t this blackberry cheesecake look amazing?!  It tastes even better, promise!

Adding low carb vanilla ice cream or whipping cream would make this a truly decadent dessert.

When I recently hosted a keto potluck I had friends try this cheesecake, my Keto Chocolate Almond Caramel Cheesecake, a Keto Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake and a Keto Fatso Salted Caramel Cheesecake to help me decide which one was the best.  Needless to say, we never did come up with a winner, they were all delicious!

Friends who are not following a keto lifestyle would never know that this is a low carb treat.

More tips for keto baking:

• Find low carb substitutions for your current favorite recipes.  Like almond flour instead of wheat flour and stevia instead of cane sugar.
• Maintain a healthy balance of protein and fats.  Sometimes its hard to get enough fat and/or protein in a ketogenic diet so be sure to include a balance of both in your dishes.
• Plan ahead and use tools like this Meal Planning Printable to reach maximum success.
• Find recipes that you love, like these Keto Mint Chocolate Cookies, Dark Chocolate Almond Bars or Keto Turtle Cookies and use them in your must bake list.
• Be sure to stock the kitchen with helpful tools (aff links) like this food scale, these measuring cups and a Kitchen Aid mixer.
