Strawberry Cheesecake Recipe
Low Carbohydrates
This strawberry cheesecake recipe is low in carbohydrates. It isn’t for those on a keto diet (I have added how you can make it keto below). However, if you’re just keeping your carbs low, this is great for you!
I love cheesecake, so when I switched to a low carb diet I was gutted that I wouldn’t be able to eat it anymore. I scowled the internet for low carb cheesecakes, but none of them tasted as good. So, I tried a little tweaking here and there, and found one that tastes just like cheesecake (because it is cheesecake), I’ve just lowered the carbohydrate content.

- In a food processor, blast the digestive biscuits until they form a breadcrumb consistency. Or, alternatively, place biscuits in a food bag, do up, and beat with a rolling pin.

- Place contents into a 20cm cake tin and flatten using the back of a spoon. Put in fridge.
- Add double cream into a bowl. Whisk for a few minutes until it thickens a little.

To make this cheesecake completely sugar free you could try these keto digestive biscuits, or just use all ground almonds and no biscuits. you would need 170g ground almonds in that case.
