- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- ⅓ cup melted butter
- ½ cup almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 200 g softened cream cheese
- ¼ cup powdered erythritol

Step-by-Step Method 👩🍳
Step 1: Prepare the Baking Pan
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a square baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Stir well so all ingredients are evenly blended.
Step 3: Prepare the Batter
In another bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until a thick, smooth batter forms.
Step 4: Make the Cheesecake Layer
Beat the softened cream cheese with erythritol until creamy and lump-free. Add the egg and vanilla extract, then mix again until silky smooth.
Step 5: Prepare the Crumb Topping
Combine almond flour, erythritol, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Add butter and rub it into the mixture until crumbly pieces form.
Step 6: Assemble the Cake
Spread the cake batter evenly into the prepared pan. Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture over the batter and smooth it out gently.
Scatter blueberries evenly across the cheesecake layer. Finish by sprinkling the crumb topping generously over the entire cake.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the top becomes golden brown and the center is fully set.
Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing. Chilling it slightly will give cleaner slices and a richer flavor.
Ingredient Tips & Easy Swaps ✨
Almond Flour
Almond flour creates a soft and moist texture that works perfectly for keto baking. You can also use hazelnut flour or sunflower seed flour if desired.
Blueberries
Blueberries provide natural sweetness and a burst of fruity flavor. Raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries also work well in this recipe.
Cream Cheese
Cream cheese gives the dessert its signature cheesecake taste. Dairy-free cream cheese can be used for a lactose-free version.
Almond Milk
Almond milk keeps the cake light while maintaining moisture. Coconut milk or heavy cream can be substituted for a richer texture.
Helpful Baking Tips 🍰
- Always use room-temperature cream cheese for a smoother filling.
- Do not overmix the crumb topping; it should stay chunky and crumbly.
- If the cake browns too quickly, loosely cover it with foil while baking.
- Cooling the cake fully helps improve texture and flavor.
