High Protein Keto Cheesecake

I'm always looking for quick, easy recipes to help me eat enough protein.

So anytime I can sneak some extra protein in my day with foods that still taste good, I'm going to do it!

I try to keep my carbs in check, so I've used ingredients that are all keto-friendly and low carb.

And even though it's low carb, this protein cheesecake packs 52 (!!) grams of protein! And no added sugars!

{For full instructions and ingredient amounts, scroll down to the recipe card}

You'll only need a few ingredients to make this:

Plain Greek Yogurt – Makes the dessert thick, like cheesecake and also adds a lot of protein! I like the Oikos Pro Plain Greek Yogurt, since each cup as 25 grams of protein and only 6 grams of carbs. There are lots of greek yogurts on the market, but we tend to stick with full fat options rather than fat free ingredients.

Whipped Cream Cheese – choose the unsweetened kind. Can choose fat free cream cheese if keeping fat macro low.

Vanilla Whey Protein – can also choose and unflavored whey if you prefer things less sweet.

Vanilla Keto Pudding Mix – Simply Delish Sugar Free Pudding Mix is my pick for keto pudding. It's not perfect, but the macros and ingredients are the best I've found.

How To Make a Low Carb Crust for Cheesecake Protein Pudding

If you would like a TRUE cheesecake experience – such a delicious treat! – then you're going to want a low carb graham cracker crust for your cheesecake.

I suggest using this 3-Ingredient Keto Pie Crust Recipe using almond flour in a springform pan for best results.

Or, if you don't have one of those, use a standard pan with parchment paper.

As always, having certain supplies on hand in the kitchen will make this recipe simpler, although many substitutions can be made for the exact items I used.

How To Make Cheesecake Protein Pudding

In a large mixing bowl, combine greek yogurt, and whipped cream cheese.

Mix in the vanilla protein powder and vanilla pudding mix until it has reached a creamy texture. You can use a stand mixer or hand mixer as this takes a bit of mixing, and you want creamy, smooth results.

Place in a glass dish with a lid and let sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before eating.

Protein Pudding FAQ's

Can I Make This Sweeter?
Yes! There are 2 ways to make the protein pudding sweeter. First, you can add a tablespoon of Sugar-Free Sweetener. Use a monkfruit, stevia, or allulose sweetener for best results and limited blood sugar increase. Or, you can choose a pre-sweetened greek yogurt, such as Ratio, or Two Good. However, this will change the macros listed on the recipe card.

How To Store Keto Cheesecake Protein Pudding?
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Do not freeze.
