- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1 cup Fresh Blueberries (Pureed in the food processor)
- 1 cup Fresh Blueberries (Whole)
- 32 oz Cream Cheese (Softened to room temperature)
- 8 oz Sour Cream (Room temperature)

Cooking Steps
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Adjust the top rack to be positioned in the middle of the oven.
- Wrap the outside of a 10-inch springform pan in a double layer of foil. Covering the bottom and sides of the pan, only from the outside. This will prevent the cheesecake from water leaking in.
- Spray the springform pan inside with baking spray and set aside.
- Add all the keto cheesecake crust ingredients to a large bowl and stir until fully combined.
- Press the mixture into the prepared springform pan. Using a measuring cup or your fingers, press the crust and try to line the sides about 1 inch up.
- Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
- Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before you begin.
- In the bowl of a standing mixer or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy on medium-low speed, for about 1 minute.
- Add sour cream and heavy cream, then beat for another minute, stopping to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
- Add the sweetener and continue beating until well combined and creamy.
- Add the vanilla extract, and eggs, one at a time, and beat after each addition until just combined.
- Be careful not to over-mix. Stop to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl when mixing.
- Add the blueberry puree and beat just until combined.
- Fold in the whole blueberries with a spatula.
- Pour cheesecake batter into the prepared crust.
Baking:
- Set the springform pan in a large roasting pan, that is deep enough to add water to it.
- Pour HOT water into the roasting pan, about halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
- Transfer to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes, until it only slightly jiggles in the center. We baked our cheesecake for exactly 1 hour and 20 minutes at 300 F.
- Turn the oven off, but leave the cake in the oven with the door slightly opened to cool slowly for an hour.
- Transfer the cake to a cooling rack and take off the foil.
- Run a butter knife around the edges to prevent the cheesecake from sticking to the sides. Cool for another 2 hours and transfer to the fridge to chill for 5-6 hours or better overnight.
- Place a medium saucepan on the stove over medium heat.
- Add the blueberries.
- Add water, lemon juice, lemon zest, and the sweetener.
- Stir and simmer for 4-5 minutes, crushing a few berries.
Slice cheesecake and serve with the Sugar-Free Berry Sauce and Sugar-Free Whipped Cream on the side.
