Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Keto Berry Pecan Cheesecake Squares.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for a delicious treat.
Step 2
Next, grab your food processor and finely chop the pecans until they’re nice and crumbly.
Step 3
Toss in the stevia-erythritol sweetener, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a dash of nutmeg, then give it a quick whirl until everything is well blended.
Step 4
Transfer this delightful mixture into a bowl and stir in the melted butter until it’s all combined.
Step 5
Now, take this crust mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of a brownie pan, making sure it’s evenly spread for that perfect base.
Step 6
In a separate large bowl, beat an egg with an electric mixer until it’s fluffy and light.
Step 7
Gradually add the cream cheese, one ounce at a time, mixing until the texture is smooth and creamy.
Step 8
Next, incorporate the sweetener, sour cream, vanilla extract, and almond milk into the cream cheese mixture, continuing to beat until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 9
Don’t forget to stir in the melted butter for that extra richness! Now it’s time to pour the luscious cheesecake filling over your prepared crust in the brownie pan.
Step 10
If you’re using a divider, go ahead and insert it now.
Step 11
Slide the pan into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 35 minutes, or until the filling is set and just slightly jiggly in the center.
Step 12
While your cheesecake is baking to perfection, let’s whip up a vibrant berry sauce.
Step 13
Heat a small pot over medium heat and add your mixed berries along with a touch of sweetener.
Step 14
Bring it to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for about 5 minutes.
Step 15
Stir the berries occasionally, mashing some with a spoon to release their juicy goodness, and let it cook for an additional 10 minutes until it thickens up beautifully.
Step 16
Once your cheesecake bars are done baking, allow them to cool in the pan for about an hour.
Step 17
This is the perfect time to savor the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen! After they’ve cooled, pour the luscious berry sauce over the cheesecake bars just before serving.
Step 18
Enjoy every bite of this delicious creation, and don’t forget to share with friends and family—they’ll be asking for seconds!.
