Keto Fatso Salted Caramel Cheesecake

This Fatso salted caramel cheesecake recipe is absolutely delicious and keto friendly.

One of my favorite new low carb products is this Fatso peanut butter.  Made with top quality, clean ingredients it is perfectly packed with protein and low carb for those who may be following a ketogenic diet.  And did I mention that it’s totally yummy?!  I decided to make this decadent cheesecake using my favorite Fatso flavour, crunchy salted caramel.

Keto Fatso Salted Caramel Cheesecake

Ever since I began following a ketogenic lifestyle over two years ago, I have been adapting many of my favorite recipes with low carb substitutions.  You can check out my Keto Beginner Guide to see how I got started on my ketogenic journey and lost over 85lbs in less than a year.

This rich peanut butter flavoured cheesecake is one of my most recent recipe adaptations.  I love to play around with recipes, making traditional desserts sugar free and low carb.  

Fatso Crunchy Salted Caramel

This is the Fatso crunchy salted caramel peanut butter that I used to create this cheesecake.  Try not to eat it all out of the jar with a spoon, I dare you!

You don’t need to use Fatso though, you can easily substitute your favourite natural butter.  I like to use natural almond butter from Costco in making this recipe too.  It gives the cheesecake a totally different flavour!

How to make this keto Fatso salted caramel cheesecake:

More tips for keto baking:

  • Find low carb substitutions for your current favorite recipes.  Like almond flour instead of wheat flour and stevia instead of cane sugar.
  • Maintain a healthy balance of protein and fats.  Sometimes its hard to get enough fat and/or protein in a ketogenic diet so be sure to include a balance of both in your dishes.
  • Plan ahead and use tools like this Meal Planning Printable to reach maximum success.
  • Find recipes that you love, like these Keto Mint Chocolate Cookies, Dark Chocolate Almond Bars or Keto Turtle Cookies and use them in your must bake list.
  • Be sure to stock the kitchen with helpful tools (aff links) like this food scale, these measuring cups and a Kitchen Aid mixer.

When I recently hosted a keto potluck I had friends try this cheesecake, my Keto Chocolate Almond Caramel Cheesecake, this Keto Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake and my Keto Blackberry Cheesecake to help me decide which one was the best.  Needless to say, we never did come up with a winner, they’re all delicious!
