No Bake Keto Crème Brulee Cheesecake Bars

With a crispy almond flour crust, these no-bake keto creme brulee cheesecake bars are perfect for brunch, dessert, or with a cup of coffee.

Is Creme Brulee Keto-Friendly

There is a way to make creme brulee keto-friendly, but classic creme brulee has way too much sugar to fit into a low-carb diet. In fact, one serving of traditional creme brulee has 20 grams net carbs! 

There is something so incredible about caramelized sugar, so I wanted to create a low-carb version. Instead of just a light custard with caramelized sugar on top, I took the recipe a step further and made it so filling that I wouldn’t want more snacks after. 

Creme brulee cheesecake bars are rich, high in protein, and high in healthy fats. They fill you up and satisfy your sweet tooth all at the same time. 

What Is Creme Brulee

Crème brûlée is a French dessert. It is also known as burnt creme and Trinity cream. The base is velvety, smooth custard. On top is a crispy layer of caramelized sugar.

Most people use a butane torch to burn the sugar on top and give it that classic texture. 

The custard is usually made with a combination of heavy cream, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. There is a really easy way to make it keto-friendly, you just have to use sugar substitutes and low-carb ingredients. 

Keto Creme Brulee

There are only 2 grams net carbs in each of these keto creme brulee cheesecake bars. That gives you plenty of macros left over to be able to enjoy more than one. 

If you want a luxurious brunch or dessert then enjoy a cheesecake bar with a glass of low-carb dalgona coffee. Every sip melts on your tongue and is light as a cloud. 

Or enjoy a cheesecake bar with a slice of keto coffee cake. It has a delicious crumb topping and the best sugar-free glaze. 

No-Bake Creme Brulee

There are so many reasons to enjoy a simple no-bake recipe! I love that when the weather is hot outside, I don’t have to make my kitchen even warmer with a stove. 

This is also a perfect recipe to make when you are distracted with kids, guests, or working from home (raises both hands). 

Creme Brulee Cheesecake Bars

These no-bake cheesecake bars really taste the best within a day or two of making them. Store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

They will stay fresh for up to 3 days. After about 3 days, the cheesecake mixture will begin to soak into the almond flour crust and soften it a bit.
