Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1.5 cups almond flour naturally gluten-free, adds structure
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted) provides moisture
  • 2 tbsp sugar-free sweetener adds sweetness
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract enhances flavor
  • 1/4 tsp salt balances sweetness

For the Filling

  • 16 oz cream cheese (softened) creates a creamy texture
  • 3/4 cup sugar-free powdered sweetener (e.g. monk fruit, erythritol, or allulose) adds sweetness
  • 1 cup sour cream adds creaminess and tang
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract enhances flavor
  • 2 tbsp lime juice adds acidity and flavor

For Topping

  • 1.5 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen) adds fruitiness
  • 1 tbsp sugar-free sweetener adds sweetness to berries
  • 1 tsp lemon juice adds freshness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare your baking pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, sugar-free sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Press the almond flour mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake the crust for about 10 minutes until the edges are light golden brown, then cool slightly.

Making the Filling

  • In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  • Gradually add the sugar-free powdered sweetener and mix until incorporated.
  • Add sour cream, lime juice, and vanilla extract; mix until fully combined and smooth.
  • Pour the filling over the cooled crust and spread evenly.

Baking

  • Bake the cheesecake bars for about 25-30 minutes until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
  • Allow to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Topping Preparation

  • In a medium bowl, toss mixed berries with sugar-free sweetener and lemon juice to coat.
  • After chilling, slice the cheesecake bars into squares and serve topped with the macerated berries.

Notes

Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing. Avoid overbaking the cheesecake; it should be slightly jiggly in the center before cooling.
