Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 3 tbsp powdered erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
For the Cheesecake Filling:
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¾ cup pumpkin puree unsweetened
  • ½ cup powdered erythritol
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Hand mixer or stand mixer
  • Spatula
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring cups & spoons
  • Knife for slicing

Method
 

Preheat oven:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
Make the crust:
  1. In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted butter, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt until crumbly. Press evenly into the bottom of your prepared pan.
  2. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until lightly golden. Set aside to cool slightly.
Prepare the filling:
  1. In another bowl, beat cream cheese and sweetener until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, vanilla, and spices. Mix until creamy and well combined.
Assemble:
  1. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the baked crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake:
  1. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
Chill:
  1. Allow to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight for best texture).
Slice & Serve:
  1. Cut into 12 bars. Optionally, top with sugar-free whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.

Notes

  • Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling (which contains sugar).
  • Let the cheesecake cool fully before slicing — this helps it set properly.
  • For a dairy-free version, use vegan cream cheese and coconut oil in place of butter.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
