_Sips coffee_ Ladies (and gents), let me tell you about my absolute favorite keto-friendly afternoon treat that’ll make you forget all about those sugar-loaded snacks we used to devour!
Picture this: Creamy, dreamy Keto Lemon Cheesecake Bites that are not only guilt-free but will have your taste buds doing a happy dance. Trust me, I’ve perfected this recipe after countless attempts (and maybe a few kitchen disasters 😅).
These little bites of heaven pack only 2g net carbs per serving, and honey, they’re worth every bite!
What You’ll Need:
• 8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
• 1/4 cup powdered erythritol
• 2 large eggs
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• Pinch of salt

Now, let’s get cooking!
1. Preheat that oven to 325°F (because we’re fancy like that 💁♀️)
1. Line a mini muffin tin with cute little liners (I use pink ones because why not?)
1. In a large bowl, beat that cream cheese until it’s smooth and silky. Add the powdered erythritol and keep beating until well combined.
1. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Don’t rush this part, girlfriends!
1. Fold in your lemon zest, juice, vanilla extract, almond flour, and salt. Mix until just combined – we don’t want to overdo it!
1. Fill each liner about 3/4 full (approximately 2 tablespoons of mixture)
1. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the centers are just set. They should have a slight jiggle – like me after my third cup of coffee! ☕
Let these babies cool completely before diving in. I know it’s tempting, but patience is a virtue!
Pro tip: Store these in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days (if they last that long – mine never do! 😉)
