How to make no bake peanut butter cheesecake
I made the keto peanut butter cheesecake in a springform pan to give the look of a baked cheesecake. But, unlike a traditional cheesecake, it sets in the refrigerator.
The crust
I considered making this in a pie pan like I usually do for no bake cheesecakes. But I thought it would give a much better presentation using a springform pan, and it certainly does. However, you can make a traditional pie crust if you prefer.
The gluten free crust is just a mix of almond flour, cocoa, sweetener, and butter. To make for easier cleanup, everything is mixed inside the pan and then just pressed in.
When making the crust, I find it easiest to press the crust down with my hand. I do cover my fingers with a plastic baggie so the crust mix doesn't stick to my hand.
The cheesecake filling
When making the filling, you’ll want to make sure that both the cream cheese and peanut butter are at room temperature. If cold, it the ingredients can be difficult to combine into a creamy mixture. But to save time, you can microwave both for about 30 seconds to warm them up.
Sweetened stabilized whipped cream is perfect for making no bake desserts. It's just heavy cream whipped with gelatin added to prevent it from deflating. But if you'd prefer not to use gelatin, ¼ to ½ teaspoon of cream of tartar can be used instead.
Fresh whipped cream also gives the dessert a light and airy texture. However, it needs to be gently folded into the peanut butter cream cheese mixture to keep it fluffy.
Once the filling is made, simply spread it out over the crust in the pan then chill. It should be ready to serve in about 2 to 4 hours.
Keto Peanut Butter Cheesecake Recipe Variations
I like to use creamy peanut butter in the recipe, but you can certainly use chunky. And if you're avoiding peanuts, you can use a different nut or seed butter. I really like using sunflower seed butter.
If you want to cut back on carbs, you can always omit the crust. Just spoon the filling into individual dessert cups. However, it’s more of a peanut butter mousse if you do that.
Without the crust, I'd serve it with drizzled chocolate or sprinkle each serving with chocolate chips. That's because chocolate really enhances the flavor and color of peanut butter desserts.
Adding a chocolate ganache
I wasn't planning on adding chocolate to the top of this cheesecake. But when the cheesecake looked really plain when the springform pan side was removed. The cheesecake was begging for some color on top.
I thought about just sprinkling on some homemade stevia sweetened chocolate chips to give a contrasting color, but I knew that might add too many carbs. So, I made a small amount of chocolate ganache to drizzle over the top which really dressed it up.
The chocolate ganache will harden in the refrigerator. But you can drizzle it on just before serving if you want it to stay liquid.
You can also omit the chocolate drizzle or coat the entire top of the cheesecake with chocolate if you wish. Either way, everyone is sure to enjoy this rich and creamy cheesecake!

I made this last night. My God, it is delicious. I did have trouble with the ganache, though. To me, it never sweetened up very much. I also stabilized the whipped cream with Cream of Tartar. Overall, I will be making this dessert again.
Arlena
Giiirrrlll... I must say I was skeptical reading the recipe, but I did it anyway. And I'm so glad I did! I made mine in small glass dishes for serving size. I can't wait to do it again to perfect it to my taste. TY!!
Renee
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe; it was amazing!!! I made this for my birthday celebration because most of my family is on the Keto diet, and everyone loved it. I most definitely will be making this for other family events. I did make an extra bowl of the stabilized whipped cream for those that wanted an extra dollop on their slice of peanut butter cheesecake.
serena
Oh my god this is the best cheesecake ever!! ---- And I've made loads!
Ashley
How do you calculate the nutritional information?
Lisa MarcAurele
It's done by using a standard food database. The calculation figures out the total nutritional data then divides that by the number of servings. Erythritol is not included in the carbohydrate count as it's been shown not to impact.
Gabby
Can I bake this instead. I don’t have gelatin
Lisa MarcAurele
You'd have to make modifications like add eggs.
Maria
Oh my god, it's delicious. I didn't have almond flour so I baked crust from peanut butter with eggs ans sweetener. Thanks for the recipe!!!
Kimberly
Hi I was wondering if I can use pecan flour for the crust? Have a bag just don't know what to do with it .
Lisa MarcAurele
It will have a slightly different taste, but pecan flour can be subbed for almond flour.
Peter Langford
Made this last night but covered it with a peanut & chocolate covering. It’s turned out fantastic.
Did change a couple of things but just a personal taste.
Thanks for the recipe.
Patsy
I made this peanut butter cheesecake this morning. I can never find powdered sweetener. So I purchased a coffee grinder and grind my sweetener to powder. It blends much better into all my recipes. I also use pyure.
I would like to ask a question. I’m counting calories and carbs. Can you tell me the size of the slice in your recipe? So I can re-calculate calories and carbs. For a bite size fat booster. I did not use the spring form pan. I spread the crust out into a 9X13 baking dish and added the peanut butter, cream cheese filling on top. Also left off the chocolate ganache.
Lisa MarcAurele
If you cut it into 16 equal squares, they will be equal to my slices. And, I added in the ganache for the nutritional data.
Kathleen
I made this last night - for pictures you can go here: https://www.facebook.com/kathleen.hemrich
Everyone loved it but I am going to tweak the recipe a bit by using only two cream cheese (16 ounces) and adding in a container of ricotta cheese (maybe 16 ounces?) I did use almost a whole jar of sunflower peanut butter and I added stevia to the crust. Overall though? It turned out delicious - I have already made a Keto Cheesecake, Chocolate chip cookie dough cake and then this; my aunt's birthday is on 8/8 and she said she wanted this for her birthday cake 🙂
Lisa MarcAurele
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the recipe and the photos!
Maria
Hi Lisa. I would like to make this recipe for an Easter dessert. I have gelatin sheets on hand but not the powder. can I substitute that? If so any idea on how a sheet compares to the powder as far as measurement? Thank you!
Lisa MarcAurele
You can. Here's the conversion I found: 1 (0.25 oz.) envelope granulated gelatin = 1 tablespoon powdered gelatin = 3 sheets leaf gelatin
Maria
Thank you Lisa...making this today!
Lisa MarcAurele
Enjoy the cheesecake Maria!
Alanna Bobulinski
I want to use coconut flour I stress. What is the amount I should use for the crust?
Lisa MarcAurele
You could try 1/2 cup coconut flour, but you'll likely need more butter to make it work or need to add a liquid and or egg.
Shawna
Is there anyway to lower the fat content?? Thanks!
Lisa MarcAurele
You could try low fat cheese and cream substitutes and use defatted peanut flour in place of the peanut butter.
Dahlia Andrews
I made this last night and had a small piece with my lunch today and it was sooooo good ? I only used 16 oz of cream cheese and used a pie pan and just kinda winged it as far as sugar measurements and PB quantity Lol and used the cream of tartar for the whipped cream.
Linda
I made this with Swerve and it is gritty. Maybe it should be heated to dissolve before putting in this recipe.
Lisa MarcAurele
That can happen with erythritol sweeteners. I find it's better to use half the amount and replace it with a non erythritol sweetener.
Danette
Ph no. I used the 1-1/2 cups almond flour.. and hope it taste ok. I have not tried it.
Lisa MarcAurele
It calls for 1-1/2 cups in the recipe for the crust.
Joe
Thanks for the great recipe! Just a tip to help your followers... when you put ingredients, you put 1 1/2 cup of almond flour.... drop the one just put 1/2 cup almond flour, its confusing, I used 1 & 1/2 cup & had to start over.
Thanks keep up the great work!
Lisa MarcAurele
The 1.5 cups of almond flour is correct, but if it works with only a half cup, that's great.
Tasha Sumpter
I made this using a blend of swerve swrtener and the monk fruit sweetner. It was amazing! Got rave reviews from everyone and didn’t have a funny fake sugar aftertaste. Delicious.
Verna
How delicious .. thank you for the recipe. ( I am a peanut butter addict !“) and I really like chocolate with it. This recipe is better than one I have used over the years. Thanks again.
.
Ebony Tilley
I was very disappointed this cheese cake looks awesome and decadent ...my finished product was bitter and tasteless at best it was more of a chore eating it than an indulgence . I’m not sure if it was the off brand Stevia powered sugar or what I did not enjoy the bitter after taste.
Lisa MarcAurele
The bitterness had to have been your sweetener. We've made this cheesecake over a dozen times and it's always been well received by all.
Amy
My husband and daughter thought this was the best cheesecake ever. Me too! There is an easier way to stabilize the whipping cream, instead of gelatin you can just add 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar when whipping. That is what I did because I don't eat beef products. Thank you so much for this recipe!!
Lisa
Thanks for that tip on cream of tartar! I can add that into the recipe card. So glad the family enjoyed the cheesecake.
Terri
so... can you skip the cold water / heating / etc if you use the cream of tartar? Just whip it into the cream while whipping?
Lisa MarcAurele
Yes. You can just use the cream of tartar instead.
Robin Abernethy
Does the recipe have a "cooling effect" from the Swerve? I find that I can't tolerate that, and Stevia tastes bitter to me. I've been mostly skipping sweets because of this (I am diabetic). I do have some Allulose, but haven't tried to bake with it, and as far as I know, there's not a confectionary version of it.
Interestingly enough, my boyfriend who is not doing Keto (except as a by product of eating what I prepare), or diabetic, will gobble up all my sweet treat attempts and the artificial sweetners don't bother him.
Lisa
I've found that when mixed with cream cheese, erythritol doesn't have that strong aftertaste so I don't find it noticeable in cheesecake.
Shaena
To save time making the whipped cream, could I substitute with sugar free cool whip?
Lisa
You can, but I don't recommend Cool Whip due to the ingredients in it.
Ana
This was great! I was so close to giving in and having a cheat day filled with cookies and ice cream, but this hit the spot.
I used stevia instead of the product suggested, and used MUCH less (I can’t even say how much, as I bought small packets and tasted as I go). I feel like 1/4 cup for each step would be too much.
Making the whipping cream stiffer requires me to double the gelatin and also cool everything in the freezer to thicken (otherwise it wasn’t “stiff” enough; I was whipping everything with a fork, too)
Otherwise, everything was good and turned out, And thanks for introducing me to almond flour!
Lisa
Thanks for sharing your feedback on the recipe!
Keri Miller
Can you use vegan cream cheese?
Lisa
I've used Kite Hill with no issues. It is a bit softer than regular cream cheese.
Grere Coutie
Absolutely delicious cheesecake that I've made twice now - with one minor tweak ( I never follow recipes to the letter, lol): I DO bake the base, because it gives a better flavour. I also add a small amount of desiccated coconut to the base recipe. Just 10 - 15 minutes in a fan assisted oven on low - about 160-170 celsius. Watch it, because it will burn. Let it cool before adding the filling.
Also buy cream that is already thickened from the supermarket, so it doesn't need whipping.
This is a great recipe, so easy to make and everybody loves it. Thank you so much for the recipe.
Lisa
Thanks for sharing those tips!
Molly
Would this be OK frozen for a few days?
I want to make it for my boyfriend's birthday but I have to drive 5hrs in the car to see him. I was thinking I'd make it, freeze it once done, and keep on ice until I got there -- then let it thaw a good amount of time in the fridge before serving
Lisa
This cheesecake is fine to freeze and should definitely make a 5 hour trip if kept in a cooler with ice packs.
Maribel
Is the Coca powder unsweetened? And just to make sure I understand, I dont even have to cook the crust?
Lisa
You do not have to bake the crust. The butter should hold it together.
Pat
I like a crunchy crust.do you think if i bake it it will still be ok?
Lisa
Yes. Baking the crust should be fine and help make it crisper.
Linda G
Hi .... this recipe looks very tasty!! I'm curious about one thing - I don't use peanut butter but have switched to Almond Butter (100% almonds). If I use the almond butter does it make much of a difference in the taste of the cheesecake??
Thanks for posting this
Linda G
Lisa
It will just taste like almond butter instead of peanut butter. I actually like the taste of sunflower seed butter better as a sub for peanut butter. But, any nut or seed butter can be used. The taste will just change.
Jen
I made this last night and it was so good. It’s the first low-carb dessert that I’ve ever actually enjoyed. I’m thrilled that I found the recipe. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Lisa
You're very welcome!
Jimmy
If I was to omit the crust, how many carbs would be in each serving?
Lisa
It's best to just plug the recipe URL into MyFitnessPal.com and adjust the recipe as needed in their recipe analyzer. Just be careful to select the appropriate ingredients (like net carbs for any erythritol sweetener).
Derish
Yummy I want to try To make this I'm in love with peanut butter thanks for sharing
Katrina
Hello! Instead of nativa, can you use erythritol or stevia?
Lisa
Any low carb sweetener works in this recipe. Natvia is one-for-one to sugar so adjust accordingly.
Kim Lund
I made last night but we try to avoid xylatol or similar so I used dates in the crust and a little stevia plus raw honey in the rest,
Still kept sugar low, not as low, but it's a birthday cake so a once a year special occasion, seemed worth splurging.
I saw many use store bought gelatin, personally I only use grass fed Kosher gelatin, they may want to look up what's in it if unfamiliar.
It's like a giant Reses Peanut butter cup
Amazing

What is a vegetarian keto friendly replacement for gelatin??
Lisa
Agar agar.
Hayley
I made this last night for guests and EVERYONE was AMAZED at how good it was! I heard "superb!" more than once! Thank you!
Amanda
I am so grateful for this recipe! I absolutely LOVE IT! When your watching your carbs, you have to have something sweet to satisfy the dessert cravings! This is the perfect solution! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
Natalie M Voytac
I substituted a combination of coconut flour and tapioca flour for the almond flour (allergic) in the crust. I've used this mixture for other recipes before, and it came out fine. Unfortunately, my cross was super powdery. The rest of this dessert was so good, that no one cared who made it anyway. LOL I will definitely try again. Any advice on how to help with the powdery crust?
Lisa
The butter should hold it together, especially when chilled.
Abedesky
When instituting coconut or tapioca flour for almond flour you have to reduce the amount that you use because those flours absorb much more moisture, that’s why your crust was powdery.
Laura
Hi there I can’t wait to make this!!! Can I Use swerve confectioners in all parts where sweetener is required? That’s all I have.
Lisa
Yes. It's a suitable replacement for the Natvia.

This is one of the yummiest desserts I have ever had!!! It is so good! My husband and I absolutely love it . Thank you so much!
Lisa
You're welcome Kathy! I'm glad you guys enjoyed the treat.
Rosalind
My brother made it and it was great. I believe he substituted almond butter for the peanut butter.
Lisa
I've been using sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter so any nut or seed butter should work.

Sharon
For a 9 inch pan there's just so much cream cheese peanut butter. No way does it fit all in. My pan tray was 9 inch but couldn't fit it in. Where did I g wrong?!
Lisa
Most springform pans have a pretty tall side. Are you using the standard 9-in springform pan?
Jackie
Nn
Vicki Cali
Not familiar w. gelatin at all. is it in the Jello aisle? just put it in dry?
Lisa
It's a type of collagen. The common brand is Knox and it is usually near the Jello. You do need to dissolve it in water first, then stream it in while blending.
Tarana
Can you use natural peanut butter ( with no added sugar )?
Lisa
You should only use the natural peanut butter that has no sugar added.
Sharon
Do you use granular sweetener or a confectioners/powder sweetener? Can you make it in a regular pie plate or 8x8 square cake pan?
Lisa
You can use either the granular or powdered. It should fit in a deep dish pie pan or a 9x9-inch pan. I might fit in an 8x8-inch, but I'm not sure about that.
Kat
Can I use Stevia with this recipe??
Lisa
You could try, but the amount will need to be adjusted if it's the concentrated kind.
Dinah
Can I use almond butter instead of peanut butter?
Lisa
Absolutely! I actually prefer using sunflower seed butter. (I'm trying to stay away from peanuts as they are a legume and not recommended for strict keto).
TERESA
Ok, so my husband and I are trying this as our first desert recipe on our new low carb journey. We have done a lot of trial and error recipies and have decided to avoid using any almond or coconut flour because we just do not like the taste. I think we may try using fiber one cereal and adding some sweetner and butter for the crust. Hope this works . Thanks for the recipe . Will let you know how it goes.
Lisa
Just be careful of the added carbs in the cereal.
Heather
Whipped cream has a really small amount of carbs to it originally. Is it necessary to make the stabilized whipped cream or can you use regular whipped cream?
Lisa
It's the gelatin that helps it hold together and not get too soft.
Shimona
Wow, this is delicious! It also makes me feel very full with just a few bites; it takes me a while just to finish one slice, which is a good thing. This is the first time that I have enjoyed a dessert crust in a keto dessert recipe. I usually made my previous plain cheesecake without a crust because it always made it taste off, but this one is quite enjoyable, and kind of has a taste reminiscent of mild coffee. I even ran out of peanut butter at 85% of the way and just just powdered peanut butter, with water and zero-carb sweetener added, to finish the next 15%, and it still came out fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. This one cheesecake I made should last me a while.
Lisa
Thanks for writing in Shimona. So glad it worked out despite running out of peanut butter.
Maureen Paige
I made this today because I refuse to put the oven on during this summer heat! My partner is not Keto but he said "This is a keeper!" Delicious! So creamy!! Thank you!
Kathleen Krause
What is a serving size??
Lisa
I don't have the weight, but it's one slice when dividing into 16 slices.
Karen
So if you don't have Swerve Confectioners Sweetener you could use Splenda in it's place? I have the regular swerve, and it is very expensive, and don't want to buy the Confectioner one for just a small amount used in this recipe... I would love to try making this for our 4th of July picnic tomorrow...If someone could confirm this is okay ASAP I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you so much for what looks like an awesome Cheesecake recipe 🙂
Lisa
Yes! Any sweetener will work. It's just best to use a fine powder with erythritol based low carb sweeteners. Splenda should be fine.
Daphne
I used xyla and melted it with the gelatin. Worked great.
Lisa
Thanks for the info! I've never used xyla.
Marsha H.
I read this as 24 oz. of cream cheese! That is 3 of the 8 oz packages. Wow, that's a lot of cream cheese! Am I reading this recipe correctly?
Lisa
It is three 8 ounce blocks.
Meli
Hi! thanks for this recipe! I made it yesterday and it tastes great 😀 there's just a slight aftertaste, i'm not sure if it's the erythritol or too much vanilla extract in the chocolate ganache (a few extra drops and that thing can taste awful!). I wonder what it would taste like without any sweetener at all...
mine came out as 4.7g net carbs for 1/16 (without the sweetener), that's perfect for a dessert! do you usually count sweeteners in net carbs?
Lisa
I used to count the erythritol in the carb count, but stopped doing that as it has little impact.
Kate
I have some powdered peanut butter. Can i use it in this?
Lisa
You can, but you may need to add water first to make it into peanut butter.
Kelli
Can regular whipped cream be used instead of making the stabilied whipped cream?
Lisa
It can, but it just doesn't hold up as well.
Vicki Cali
I am not familiar w. gelatin at all. Is it in the Jello aisle? Just put in dry?? Many thanks....
Lisa
You need to soften then dissolve it first in water. It's best to stream it in slowly while mixing. The common brand is Knox and it is usually with the Jello.
kashish
can i use whey protein powder instead of Natvia or Swerve?
Lisa
If the whey protein is sweetened it might be suitable, but you'll need something to add a little sweetener unless you are looking for an unsweetened cheesecake.
Charlene
Hi, any idea how many carbs roughly a slice is?
Thanks
Lisa
That info is in the notes section of the recipe and the slice is a good size.
cara
Lisa.
I don't ever make cheesecakes so I do not have a spring form pan.
I do however have all the ingredients for this!
Can I use anything else and not call it a cheesecake? Like an 8x8 and cut in squares or something like that?
DianeDiane
I did not find a notes section with carb count either.
Lisa
The carb count is shown on the label located at the bottom of the recipe.
Katelyn
How long does this last in the fridge? I just live with my partner and I don't want it to go bad before we eat it all!
Thanks!
Lisa
It's good for a week in the fridge and can be kept in the freezer for 3-6 months.
Erinn
Made these for a party - - omg! They were SO good and a big hit! No one could tell they were sugar free at all. I cut them up into little squares - kind of bite sized. They were like little fudge/cheesecake bites. Very tasty - great texture - hard and soft at the same time. I didn't have gelatin so I used xantham gum (you use 1/2 the amount when you use it in place of gelatin) ~ it worked fine! I also added a little less creamcheese and a little more PB because I felt the ratio was a little strong on the cream cheese and I wanted it to taste really Peanut Buttery - it came out perfect I think. 🙂 Thanks for such a great recipe/treat!
Diane
Erin: Can you give the change amts of cr cheese & pb? I like your idea!
Jo Hilson
Hey! Thanks for the input on using Xantham gum instead of gelatin I have that ( I’ll use 1/2 the amount ) ?
Sheryl
Very good. Next time I won't bother with gelatin. Turned out great!
Lisa
You can probably leave it out. It may just not hold its shape as well.
Lindsey
I just made this tonight,....and it was so bad!!! Not your fault at all but the stupid no sugar sweetner,is there anything that will help get rid of that awful taste? Did you get that when you made yours?
Please HELP
Lisa
I had no bad taste with mine. What did you use as a sweetener? Perhaps you used too much.
Cynthia
Would you recommend natural peanut butter or not? Maybe a misture of both??
Lisa
You can use either, but it should have no sugar added.
Amy
Can I use Splenda for baking in place of the Swerve or Natvia? If so, can I use the same amounts as listed in the recipe? Thanks for your help.
Lisa
Any one for one sugar replacement like Splenda can be used in place of the Natvia in the same amount.
Monica Dobbs
I made just the filling and topped it with some spray cool whip in some dessert cups and it was a huge success!! Going to be making this again real soon!
Lisa
Yea! So happy it was well received. 🙂
Katelyn
One of the recipes that makes me wish I had a personal chef! LOL
Lisa
Don't we all wish we had one of those!
Selena
I just made this and from what the mixture taste like it's going to be amazing
Lisa
Thanks for giving it a try and letting us know how it tastes!
Selena
I just made this. It is setting in the fridge as we speak. From tasting the mixture it's going to be amazing
T
What is the icing sugar in step 5???
Lisa
It's a powdered sweetener like confectioner sugar.
Caitlin
Can you use any different sweetener?
Lisa
Any sweetener will work fine in this recipe!
