Ingredients
  

For the crust

  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 3 tbsp erythritol or monk fruit sweetener for crust

For the filling

  • 12 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1/3 cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener for filling
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strawberries, chopped
  • 1 tbsp sweetener for strawberry swirl
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp xanthan gum optional

Optional crumble topping

  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, and sweetener until it looks like damp sand. Press this mixture into the bottom of the pan and bake for 8–10 minutes. Let it cool completely.

Filling

  • In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sweetener, vanilla extract, and egg yolk until smooth. Spread this mixture over the cooled crust.
  • In a saucepan, cook the chopped strawberries, lemon juice, and sweetener over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. If using, add xanthan gum. Let this cool completely, then dollop it over the cheesecake layer and swirl with a knife.

Topping and Baking

  • For the crumble topping, mix chopped pecans, almond flour, and butter together. Sprinkle this on top.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until the center is slightly jiggly. Cool completely and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  • For clean slices, freeze for 15 minutes before cutting. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week, or wrap and freeze for longer storage.

Notes

Ensure that your cream cheese is softened for an easier blending process. If you prefer a firmer cheesecake, consider adding xanthan gum. Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor, but frozen can work in a pinch—just make sure they are thawed and drained properly.
