Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Filling
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons erythritol (or sweetener of choice)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, shredded coconut, 2 tablespoons erythritol, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Form the crust: Press the crust mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a lined 8×8 inch pan. Place in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.
- Make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add heavy cream, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract, then beat until creamy and well combined.
- Assemble the bars: Pour the filling over the chilled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Return the pan to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is firm.
- Prepare the topping: Mix together 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoons erythritol, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Add the topping: Once the cheesecake bars have set, sprinkle the cinnamon-erythritol mixture evenly over the top.
- Serve: Cut into 12 bars and enjoy chilled. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
- For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps in the filling.
- If you prefer a stronger cinnamon flavor, increase the cinnamon in the topping mixture.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Use powdered erythritol for the filling to avoid graininess.
- These bars are great for keto and low-carb diets.
