basque burnt cheesecake

This basque burnt keto cheesecake is the easiest cheesecake to make. There is no crust, no water bath, and you literally burn it!

What does burnt bisque keto cheesecake taste like?

If you have ever burnt a cheesecake before, you might not want to throw it out…

The burnt outside texture tastes kinda like toffee or a slightly scorched creme brulee.

The texture of this basque burnt keto cheesecake is similar to a Japanese cheesecake, light and fluffy on the inside, but beautifully creamy throughout.

Since so many people love cheesecake but hate it when the base never turns out right, this cheesecake recipe is for you.

Could this cheesecake be made with stevia?

Erythritol creates a “bulking” property to this recipe, and since stevia is usually a liquid, the majority of the “bulk” that comes from the erythritol will be gone.

This is why sugar is so hard to replace with stevia in baking.

However, if you have a blend that uses stevia and erythritol, or stevia and monkfruit, this will work, just not plain stevia liquid.

Since there is so much cream cheese and cream in this basque burnt keto cheesecake, and you literally burn the edges, there is no need for a crust.

For those people looking for a pecan crust, coconut flour crust or almond flour crust, ditch the crust idea all together and make this cheesecake instead!

This recipe is inspired by Bon Appetites’ version, except its 100% keto friendly.

Helpful Tip!

Ensure that the baking paper is about 2″ (5cm) higher than the cake tin when the cheesecake goes into the oven, as the cheesecake will rise up and spill over the sides if there is nothing to hold it upright.

Tips & Notes:

The cheesecake will jiggle when it comes out of the oven. This is a good thing!

    Loved how my Cheesecake turned out! It was so pretty too, real rustic looking♥️I have never made a Basque style one before so wasn’t sure what to expect. You can’t tell it’s keto! It was so rich and creamy and very nice thickness. I loved it and will add it to my recipe collection! 😊 Thank you so much, you are brilliant!!

    Delicious and so easy to prepare. Baked for 60 minutes – jiggly but firmed up after being in the fridge.

    Hi Aaron,
    I just made this recipe. Just waiting to cool it down and will place it in the fridge☺️
    Just wondering if the eggs are cooked through with the cheesecake and if safe for pregnant women? Thanks
