Keto Cheesecake Fruit Salad. A straightforward berry cheesecake salad is ideal for entertaining this summer.
I’ve always loved my mother’s recipe for Filipino fruit salad. I didn’t want to spend the effort making my own keto condensed milk, though.
I therefore developed this recipe for berry cheesecake salad. Instead of using homemade condensed milk, I used fresh berries and heavy cream. The ideal salad for summer!
Ingredients The recipe is fantastic because it simply calls for four staples: cream cheese, sugar, cream, and fruit.
I like to combine stevia and pure monk fruit. However, you may simply use roughly a half cup of granular sweetener if you desire a sugar alternative that matches sugar exactly.
I use fruit that is suitable for keto diets to keep the salad low-carb. You can, however, include any fresh fruit you desire. Not all of it has to be berries.
Instructions
Simply combine cream cheese, low carb sweetener(s), and heavy cream to make this straightforward cheesecake fruit salad. You simply add your keto-friendly berries after that.
Cheesecake Mixture
Whip the cream cheese in a big bowl as the first step. It needs to be brought to room temperature so that an electric mixer can whip it up without difficulty.
The sugar and heavy whipping cream are added when the cheese has become light and airy, and the mixture is then whisked together until thick and creamy.
Insert the Fruit
Before adding the fruit to the mixing bowl, cut up any larger fruit, such as strawberries, into smaller pieces. Although you can use whole strawberries, I feel that dicing them into smaller pieces makes them simpler to consume.
Blueberries and other small berries can be included whole.
Blackberries and raspberries combined provide a lovely blend of additional colour.
Simply gently incorporate all of the delectable berries into the bowl using a rubber spatula once they have been introduced.
Quick Advice
Keep the carbs low. Use fruits with the fewest carbohydrates when preparing a keto fruit salad.
Embrace coconut. Dried coconut that has not been sweetened is a tasty addition to the salad to mix up the flavor.
Gently fold. You must carefully incorporate the fruit into the creamy cheesecake batter to avoid shattering it.
Employ condensed milk. Use low-carb sweetened condensed milk instead of heavy cream and sweeteners if you have any on hand.
Suggestions for Serving
The summer berry cheesecake salad recipe yields roughly 12 cups. It’s a fantastic size to share with lots of family members and friends. If you only need half the recipe, that is always an option.
When paired with the white sweetened cream cheese sauce and red and blue berries, it creates a patriotic dessert in the colors red, white, and blue for the Fourth of July. But because the recipe is so simple, you’ll want to prepare this fruit salad all summer.
This fruit salad pairs beautifully with other summertime favorites like strawberry limeade and grilled chicken kebabs.
