These Low Carb Cheesecake pots taste divine. Make these simply to have as a treat at home or serve them at a dinner party. No one will ever guess that these are low carb. They tick lots of boxes as they are sugar free, wheat free, egg free and of course gluten free so they are ideal for a crowd.They are really simple to make and you simply cannot go wrong with the recipe nor the taste.
Pure Unadulerated Food
I make Low Carb Cheesecake Pots without the use of any thickeners such as gelatine, which is why they are perfect to serve in pots or small bowls. As there is no need to hold its shape, there is absolutely no need for any thickeners to be used at all. Note that you can make these without using any sweetener as well if you wish to.
I love the fact that these are individual serves and they are easy to decorate as well. You could increase the serving size by serving in a larger bowl/glass or you can decrease the serving size as well. I tend to do this if I have a buffet of miniature desserts on offer. I also love the fact that these are then measured portions as well, so good for portion control if you need it.
You might recognise my pots as coffee cups as I have a set of small Bodum glass walled “Pavina” coffee cups at home, that I find ideal for serving smaller servings of these in. Did you know that you can actually heat these Bodum coffee cups up to about 170 C/340 F, which also means that you can bake in them up to that temperature as well? I use them to make desserts in all of the time, both baked and unbaked.
Fabulous Variations
Delicious served on their own, these Low Carb Cheesecake Pots can be also be served with a dollop of fresh cream or coconut cream on top. Garnish with berries, coconut, Sugar Free Cake Crumble Mix or garnish of choice. Also delicious served with Low Carb Raspberry Chia Spread on top as well. Make sure you also check out the options for making these into Berry Cheesecake Pots or Lemon Curd Cheesecake Pots, featured in the recipe below.
I hope you enjoy this simple to make but delicious dessert.
