I love cheesecake,and I love lemon. So obviously, lemon cheesecake is one of my very favorite desserts. Making one of my favorite desserts low carb keto friendly is just a natural step to take. Can’t live a full happy life without my favorites, right?
We created this simple lemon cheesecake filling recipe and decided to use pecan nuts for a keto approved base.
Keto desserts are what makes a healthier lifestyle completely sustainable. By making smart ingredient swaps, you can still enjoy all your favorite desserts!

Our keto mini cheesecake bites with no base, (a traditional base that is), is made using a low carb keto friendly cheesecake base prepared with crushed pecan nuts.
How To Make No Bake Keto Mini Lemon Cheesecake Bites:
Any good cheesecake starts with a good base, and this keto friendly cheesecake base is not only easy but also delicious and since it’s made with pecan nuts, it adds delicious depth of flavor as well.
How To Make No Bake Keto Cheesecake Crust:
We like to use pecan nuts to create a no-bake low carb keto cheesecake base. Although, this base can definitely be used for any full-sized no-bake pie or dessert.
It’s extremely easy and needs only 3 simple ingredients:
- Pecan Nuts
- Melted Butter (Coconut oil will probably work as well if you’re going to use this with a dairy-free dessert)
- Honey
Add these ingredients to your food processor and blitz until it is relatively smooth. This is a personal preference of course. You can leave it chunkier if you want more of a contrast in texture between the keto cheesecake filling and the base.

That’s all there is to it!
Now choose your vessel! You can put these into muffin or cupcake liners, jars, mugs or cups. You can even use an 8” pie dish and make a full-size keto cheesecake.
For our mini keto cheesecake bites, we chose very small muffin or cupcake liners and used a muffin tin to hold them.

I used about a teaspoon of base per cupcake liner and pressed it down using my fingers. Of course, this is only because the liners are so small (since we’re doing mini keto cheesecake bites). If you’re using larger cupcake liners or jars or mugs or cups, you can press it down using a spoon.
How To Make Keto Lemon Cheesecake Filling:
The low carb keto lemon cheesecake filling is also made using only 3 simple ingredients:
- Cream cheese
- Lemon (Juice and Zest)
- Honey

Add these ingredients to your food processor (I use a rubber spatula to scrape out the pecan filling and use the blender as is - I don’t wash it between making the crust and making the filling. Ain’t nobody got time fo’ dat!).
Now, once you’ve blended the filling and everything is well combined, it’s time to add some on top of the crust.
Since my cupcake liners were so small (about 1” diameter), I used two teaspoons to add the cheesecake filling on top. Although, a better idea would be to use a piping bag (it’ll be much quicker, easier and less messy.)

Once you’ve topped the no-bake keto crust with the cheesecake filling - it’s time to garnish it with some lemon zest!

And voilà! Keto Mini Cheesecake Bites are ready to be served as a sweet snack or mini dessert after dinner!
Extra Tip:
I like to keep my mini keto cheesecake bites in a container in the freezer. When I’m ready to serve one, I take them out of the freezer and let them sit for at least 10 minutes, or even place them in the microwave for 10-15 second (use this method at your own risk!).
That way they are nice and firm and since it’s summertime, a refreshing mini frozen dessert to cool you down.
Keto Cheesecake Calories:
The reason I like to serve this recipe in mini servings is because a smaller portion is so much better for you. You get to have a delicious dessert in a tiny, but satifysing bite to get rid of the sweets craving monkey on your back - all while still keeping things low on the calorie and carb count.
This recipe makes 24 mini lemon cheesecake bites which equal: 67 calories and 3g carbs per bite.
Even if you indulge in two mini bites, you’re still low on the calorie and carb counts. Considering the fact that we’re talking about a delicious dessert!
It can’t get better than that!
