Author: Carrie Brown | Prep time: 15 mins | Cook time: 50 minutes | Total time: 1 hour 5 mins + chilling time | Serves: 8
What You Need
- 1 recipe Cheesecake Crust
- ½ cup / 4 fl.oz milk of your choice (almond, Fairllife, etc)
- 1 packet Lemon Meringue Pie KetoChow (Cheap Chow here! No code required)
- 3 lemons, zest and juice
- pinch sea salt (For the best salt and a 15% discount use code: carriebrown)
- 1 lb. / 450g cream cheese, softened
- 2 eggs
- 2 oz. / 55g allulose (for the cheesecake)
- 1 cup / 8 fl. oz. sour cream
- 2 oz. / 55g allulose (for the topping)
What You Do
- Preheat air fryer to 325°.
- Press the Cheesecake Crust (Cheesecake Crust Recipe here) into the bottom and 1” up the sides of an 8-in. springform pan or loose-bottomed pan lined with parchment paper that fits into your air fryer. Chill the crust while preparing the cheesecake filling.
- In a small bowl mix the milk, Keto Chow, zest of the 3 lemons, and sea salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl whip the cream cheese and eggs on medium speed until evenly blended.
- Add 2 oz. allulose and continue whipping until completely mixed, about 1 minute.
- Add the milk mixture from earlier and stir in gently. Pour into crust.
- Place into your air-fryer and cook until center is almost set, 20-25 minutes.
- Open the lid and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the topping by mixing the sour cream, 2 oz. allulose and 2 tsps. juice from the lemons in a small bowl.
- Spread the topping over the cheesecake.
- Close the air-fryer and cook for a further 10 minutes at 325F.
- Remove from the air-fryer and cool on a wire rack for 1 hour (still in the pan).
- Carefully remove the collar of the pan and leave until completely cold.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for at least 3 hours or preferably overnight.
- When ready to serve, peel away the parchment paper and if desired, decorate with whipped cream and lemon zest before serving.
Top Recipe Tips
- Leave your cream cheese out of the fridge the night before to allow it to soften. It will make mixing much faster and easier.
- I used a Ninja Foodi on the Air Crisp setting, but any air-fryer should work.
- If using something like a Ninja Foodi where the pan is a snug fit, make it easier to remove the pan from the air-fryer by taking a long strip of parchment paper and using that to lower and lift the pan in and out. Do not use foil as it could catch fire.
- You can also make this without the crust.
- To make without the KetoChow: Make as directed omitting the KetoChow and milk. Add the lemon zest and sea salt when adding the allulose to the cream cheese and eggs.
