Ingredients

Cheesecake filling

3 packs cream cheese at room temp. Each pack is 250g
1/4 cup milk or almond milk
3 large eggs
1/4 cup truvia or any sweetener you like PLEASE READ THE NOTE BELOW REGARDING SWEETNERS
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 Keto Pie Crust

Strawberry Jam

2 cups chopped frozen strawberries
1 tsp sugar-free sweetener

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 300F.

Pie crust

Break your pie crust by hand and push into a non-stick loose-bottom cake pan. Using your fingers, make sure that the crust is spread evenly.

For the cheesecake

In a large bowl, add your softened 3 packs of cream cheese. Using a hand mixer, whip your cheese until you completely get rid of all lumps. Add vanilla extract, milk and sweetener of choice. Mix again until fully incorporated.
Add your eggs, one at a time and mix until you get a loose and silky mixture. Carefully, pour your mixture onto a loose-bottom 8" cake pan. Bake your cheesecake on 300F for 45 to 60 minutes or until golden brown. Your cheesecake should be completely set but the centre should be a little jiggly. Baking time will vary from one oven to the other, so keep an eye on your cheesecake to avoid over cooking it.
Let your cheesecake chill for 12 hours or overnight before serving.

Strawberry Jam

In a nonstick sauce pan, cook your strawberries and stevia until you get a thick consistency (jam like). This should take 5-8 minutes. Set it aside and let it completely cool down.
Serve your cheesecake topped with some jam. Enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Notes:

PIE CRUST RECIPE LINK

Please note that if you choose to cook with a different sweetener (different than Truvia), you're going to have to adjust your dosage (add more, or less). Not all sweeteners are created equal, so make sure that you taste your cheesecake before adding the eggs, to ensure that it's suitable to your taste.

Here are some other sweeteners you can use:

Erythritol
Monk Fruit Extract
Swerve (makes granular and confectioner's)

Regarding baking time. Baking time may differ from one person to the other, the thing you need to keep in mind is, your cheesecake has to be perfectly golden brown and the centre, and only the centre has to be slightly jiggly. So after 45 minutes of baking, check on it to make sure that it does not overcook.
