👨🍳 How To Make
Easily make the best carnivore cheesecake. Follow these steps:
Step 1
Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese and your chosen sweetener together until the mixture becomes creamy.
Step 2
Pour in the heavy cream, followed by the vanilla extract and sea salt. Mix it well until fully incorporated.
Step 3
As you blend everything together, add eggs gradually (beat one at a time) – this ensures that our carnivore cheesecake remains soft and fluffy.
Step 4
Line an 8×8 square baking dish with parchment paper. Pour in the prepared mixture. Bake at 320F (~160C) for about 25 minutes until set.
Step 5
Let it cool, then refrigerate overnight. This is crucial for achieving that perfect carnivore cheesecake consistency.
💡Tips
1. Room Temperature Ingredients
Always start with room temperature cream cheese, eggs, and heavy cream. This might seem like a small detail, but it’s important for achieving a smooth, creamy texture in your cheesecake. Cold ingredients don’t mix well and can lead to a lumpy batter.
Take your cream cheese out of the fridge about 2 hours before you plan to start baking. For the eggs and heavy cream, 30 minutes to an hour should be enough.
If you forget to do that, you can speed up the process by placing the cream cheese blocks in a sealed plastic bag and submerging them in warm (not hot) water for about 15 minutes.
2. Sweetness Level
The amount of sweetener you use can greatly impact the taste of your cheesecake. The recipe calls for 1/3 cup of monk fruit sweetener, but you might want to adjust that.
Remember, monk fruit sweetener is much sweeter than regular sugar, so a little goes a long way. You can always taste the batter (before adding the eggs) and add more if needed.

I intend to make this tomorrow. However, and not dissing this recipe, sometimes a sweet flavot can induce an insulin response even though there is no sugar.
I made this last night however, the sweetner I used was called Zsweet and while the flavor is good. It can out more like a Creme Brule. It was crispy on top and custard like in the center. I didn’t have monk fruit on hand. I plan to use it on top of some raspberries. I probably should’ve used the whole block of cream cheese too…
We love it. It’s perfect for that sweet treat without the sugar and so easy to make.
Overall good, only issue is that the sweetener listed is NOT monk fruit, it is mostly Erythritol. Pure Monk fruit or Stevia would be a better choice IMO.
The first time I made the recipe, I followed it, except I used swerve, and it came out with kind of a grainy texture, but was still very good, the second time I kind of mix things up and added some fresh goat cheese ricotta, and used 1/4 of the sweetener-used chocolate raspberry Stevia… was the bomb!!!! like always 🤷🏻♀️eat it in moderation, but it is that perfect little treat when you are just really craving, it is so custardy and satisfying😉
Can I use the egg yolks only instead of whole eggs?
It’s in the oven. I’ll tell you tomorrow.
Absolutely delicious!!! Thank you!
I added a little more vanilla for fun but it was seriously so good!
Soooooooo—- how many containers of that sweetener are needed? The recipe calls for 1/3 cup, but each container holds LESS than ONE OUNCE. Your recipe looks beautiful and I’m anxious to try it!! Also, perhaps put the ingredients in GRAMS, using a kitchen scale? That would be THE BOMB, and so much more accurate! Thank you!
Hi, it was linking to the wrong product. I fixed it .Thank you so much for commenting.
This is my go to cheesecake recipe now. So simple and delicious!
I’ve made traditional and it take much longer to back. I’m Leary if taking it out of the oven. 25 min seems so short.🤞
