Are you ready to embark on a delightful journey that will satisfy your sweet cravings without derailing your healthy lifestyle? Buckle up, because this recipe is a game-changer!

    I'll let you in on a little secret behind this recipe—I adore cheesecake. There's something about the creamy texture and rich flavors that make it a dessert champion in my book. But I wanted to create something that would not only please my own taste buds but also be a hit with my entire family, from my hubby to my adorable grandkids. And that's when the idea struck me—why not incorporate the flavors of the Southern-style banana pudding my kids used to love?

    To make this dreamy keto-friendly dessert, I took a humble plain ol' cheesecake and catapulted it into OMG fabulous territory. The secret lies in using keto vanilla wafers and sugar-free banana pudding. These clever substitutes ensure that you get all the wonderful flavors of traditional banana pudding, without compromising your health goals. Trust me, it's a win-win situation!

    Now, let me share a little something for those who fear the dreaded crack in baked cheesecakes. I used to be a non-bake cheesecake queen, avoiding the oven like the plague when it came to making cheesecakes. But with this recipe and the way I bake it, I can darn near guarantee you won't get a crack. However, even if a crack does happen to sneak its way in, fear not! This cheesecake is topped with a luscious banana whipped cream that will beautifully conceal any imperfections.

    But enough chatter—let's dive into the tantalizing details of this recipe. First, we'll create a delectable crust using keto vanilla wafers, crushed to perfection. This low-carb twist adds a delightful crunch and sets the stage for the creamy indulgence that awaits. Next, we'll prepare the creamy filling, a velvety blend of cream cheese, sugar-free banana pudding mix, and a few other magic ingredients. This heavenly mixture is poured over the crust and baked to creamy perfection.

    After allowing the cheesecake to cool, it's time to elevate it with a sensational finishing touch—scrumptious banana whipped cream. Envision a luscious blend of whipped cream infused with the delightful essence of ripe bananas. Gently spread this exquisite concoction across the top of the cheesecake, creating a velvety layer of banana-infused goodness. To enhance the experience further, generously sprinkle crumbled sugar-free vanilla wafers over the cream, adding a touch of buttery sweetness to each bite. The combination of creamy cheesecake, a delectable banana cream topping, and crunchy wafer crumbles will transport your taste buds to pure dessert ecstasy. Get ready to indulge in a heavenly symphony of flavors that will have you savoring every mouthwatering moment.

    I recently made this Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake for my family, and the reactions were priceless. My granddaughter took one bite and immediately asked if she could have seconds. The rest of the crew, from my husband to the little ones, couldn't get enough of it. In fact, my granddaughter loved it so much that I ended up sending half of the cheesecake home with her!

    So, whether you're a keto enthusiast, a dessert lover looking to satisfy a sweet tooth without the guilt, or simply someone seeking a crowd-pleasing treat, this Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake is the answer to your cravings. It's a delightful fusion of flavors that will transport you to dessert heaven with every creamy, decadent bite.

    • Keto Vanilla Wafers - instead of the store bought vanilla wafers you can make them homemade or you can use almond flour with a bit of vanilla extract.

    🍽Equipment

    This is the equipment you will need to make Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake.

    • 9" Springform Pan
    • Food Processor
    • Measuring Cups & Spoons
    • Stand Mixer
    • Rubber Spatula

    Storage

    When stored properly in the refrigerator, the Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake can last for about 4 to 5 days. Make sure to cover it tightly with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out or absorbing any odors from the fridge. The cheesecake will maintain its best texture and flavor within the first few days. After that, it may start to lose some of its freshness.

    If you need it to last longer, you can also freeze individual slices of the cheesecake for up to 2-3 months. Just ensure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container before freezing. Thaw the slices in the refrigerator overnight before enjoying them.

    💭Top tip

    To ensure a smooth and crack-free cheesecake, make sure all the ingredients, especially the cream cheese, are at room temperature before mixing. This allows for better incorporation and prevents lumps in the batter, resulting in a velvety texture.

    FAQ about Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake

    Can I make this cheesecake without the crust?

    Yes, you can omit the crust if you prefer a crustless version of the cheesecake. Simply skip the crust preparation step and proceed with making the filling. You will lose that traditional southern banana pudding flavor but the result will be a delicious, creamy banana cheesecake.

    Is it possible to make the cheesecake dairy-free?

    Yes, you can make a dairy-free version of the Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake by using dairy-free cream cheese, coconut cream, and plant-based alternatives for sour cream and heavy whipping cream. Adjust the quantities and consistency as needed for the best results.

    Can I freeze the Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake?

    Yes, you can freeze this cheesecake for longer storage. Wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container. Thaw the slices in the refrigerator overnight before consuming. However, note that the texture and consistency may slightly change after freezing and thawing.

    How can I prevent the cheesecake from cracking while baking?

    To minimize the chances of the cheesecake cracking, it's important not to overbeat the batter and to ensure all the ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. Additionally, baking the cheesecake in a water bath helps to maintain a more even and gentle heat distribution, reducing the likelihood of cracks.

    • 12 Keto Vanilla Wafers crushed

    Instructions
     

    For the crust

    • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    • Cut a circle of parchment paper to cover the bottom of a 9" springform pan and spray the pan with coconut oil.
    • Wrap the pan with foil to prevent water from seeping into the pan.
    • Place the sugar-free vanilla wafers in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the cookies are a fine crumb, about 1 minute.
    • Add the keto honey and salt to the crumbs and pulse to combine.
    • With the food processor on low speed, slowly add the melted butter, pulsing just until the mixture resembles wet sand.
    • Transfer the crust mixture to the springform pan and press it into an even layer on the bottom and slightly up the sides.
    • Bake the crust for 10 minutes.
    • Set it aside to cool and prepare the filling.

    For the cheesecake

    • Place the cream cheese and granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on medium-low speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
    • Add the sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla to the cream cheese mixture. Mix to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
    • Add the banana pudding mix and coconut flour. Mix to combine.
    • With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs one at a time. As soon as the last egg is incorporated, stop mixing. Do NOT overbeat.
    • Pour the cheesecake mixture into the crust, smoothing the top with a rubber spatula, and then place the springform pan into a large baking pan or a roasting pan with tall sides.
    • Add hot water to the baking pan until it's 1" deep.
    • Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center just barely jiggles when gently shaken (cheesecake will continue to cook in the warm oven)
    • Turn off the oven and crack open the oven door, prop it open with a wooden spoon if you need to make sure it won't close. Allow the cheesecake to sit in the warm oven for 1 hour.
    • Remove the pan from the water bath and place the cheesecake in the fridge to chill for at least 6 hours, but preferably overnight.

    For the garnish

    • Add the heavy cream, powdered sweetener, and remaining sugar-free banana pudding mix to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
    • Gently run a knife around the perimeter of the cheesecake, then release the sides of the springform pan. Transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter.
    • Spread the whipped cream on top of the cheesecake then sprinkle with the crushed sugar-free vanilla wafers

      Looks amazing! I want to make this but I would prefer to use what you use. What keto sugar free banana pudding do you use? Some might have a not so great taste so I would trust your judgement since your whole family love your version.

        I actually grabbed Jello brand sugar-free pudding. I don't use these kinds of ingredients a lot but once in a while is OK I think. I did see a brand on Amazon but I have not tried it yet.
