This incredible keto turtle cheesecake is a decadent dessert for anyone on the keto diet or low-carb journey. It’s the perfect cheesecake that doesn’t require baking and keeps your sweet teeth down without spiketing your blood sugar levels! Only 6 g of net carbohydrates!
Do not bake keto turtle cheesecake
Topped with mock cookie crust, creamy sugar-free caramel cheesecake stuffing, caramel sauce, pecan pie and drizzle in sugar-free chocolate sauce.
The good news about baked cheesecake is handy! You don’t need a bath, and you don’t need time to cook, cool and then decorate.
This is the perfect recipe to add to your holiday baking and could be your new favorite dessert for a simple bake step! I think anyone would complain if they added this to the list for Thanksgiving or Christmas menu, as a great change to the pace from a typical traditional dessert.
Turtle Cheesecake Carbohydrates
According to App Cronometer, Walmart’s traditional turtle cheesecake, which weighs 85 grams per slice, comes in 31 g of carbohydrates and 20 g of sugar.
These carbohydrate counts are a way to get higher for those following the keto diet or eating a low-carb diet, as this will definitely boost blood sugar levels and cause cravings.
Low Carb Turtle Cheesecake Carbohydrates
Keto Pecan Caramel Cheesecake has just 6 grams of net carbs and 7 grams of protein per slice, which is a huge difference compared to traditional came cheesecakes.
All remaining nutritional information can be found in the printable recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.
Homemade sugar-free caramel sauce
My homemade keto caramel sauce takes about 10 minutes on the stove and is the most delicious caramel sauce ever!
Buyed sugar free caramel sauce options
If you haven’t seen the sugar-free caramel sauce option at a grocery store and don’t have time to make it at home, then just use Amazon to buy this brand online.
Can I make this tree nut free?
Yes, this allows you to make the nuts free by skipping the crispy candied pecans on top, using a diet of sunflower seeds or sunflower seeds with the skin.

Make this keto turtle cheesecake good, better, or best
good-This simple recipe is delicious and suffices without toppings, with just the keto caramel sauce on top, but can be a little better if you have time!
Better– Make this turtle cheesecake even better using my candied pecan air fryer recipe. But if you don’t have time, toast the chopped pecans and add a nice crunch over the caramel sauce.
The best– This option adds a drizzle of melted butter chocolate chips on top of this cheesecake only if you have the most time before serving.
Want to make it even better than that, add some delicious homemade sugar-free whipped cream and add the best keto dessert ever!
