These Eggnog Latte Keto Cheesecake Bars are insanely delicious. You must try this secret ingredient crust!

These Keto Eggnog Latte Cheesecake Bars have a secret!
I haven’t made too many cheesecakes since I realized I was sensitive to almonds. Most of the low carb cheesecake recipes out there call for an almond flour based crust, so I knew I was going to have to figure something else out.
How To Make The Perfect Keto Cheesecake Crust
I thought about substituting another nut, but that wouldn’t help low carb eaters who are sensitive to all tree nuts. So this crust is made with a secret ingredient – pork rinds! And it is seriously delicious.
I used one 2.5 oz bag of Epic Baked Himalayan Pink Salt Pork Rinds broken up in the food processor with a little flaked unsweetened coconut (to add a touch of chewiness), cinnamon, and brown Swerve sweetener. Coconut is not a botanical nut, but if you have both a nut allergy and a coconut allergy, you could just omit the coconut and the recipe will still turn out.
Making A Quick Keto Cheesecake
Making keto cheesecake bars is the perfect way to make a quick keto cheesecake! The baking time is much shorter than a full-size cheesecake, as is the cooling time. These bars are much easier to transport to a holiday party, and you can taste test the cheesecake without anyone knowing one went missing!

Eggnog Latte Keto Cheesecake Bars
Ingredients
For The Crust
- 2.5 oz Plain Salted Pork Rinds (I used one bag of this kind)
- 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Flaked Coconut
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 Cup Brown Swerve
- 4 Tbsp Butter, melted (1/2 stick)
For The Filling
- 16 oz Cream Cheese (2 x 8 oz bricks)
- 1/2 Cup Granulated Swerve
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1/4 Cup Heavy Cream
- 1/4 Cup Strong Brewed Coffee
- 2 tsp Vanilla
- 1/2 tsp Nutmeg, freshly ground (I use this to grate)
- 1 Tbsp Dark Rum (optional, or use 1/2 tsp Rum Extract)
- 1/8 tsp Salt
Instructions
For The Crust
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and line with foil or parchment. I used a nonstick metal pan, lined with a strip of parchment.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine pork rinds, flaked coconut, cinnamon, and brown Swerve. Pulse until the mixture is the texture of coarse crumbs.
- Add melted butter to food processor and pulse to combine.
- Press the crust firmly into the pan. I used a second pan of the same size to press it down.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust just starts to brown around the edges. Set the crust aside while you make the filling.
For The Filling
- Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together softened cream cheese and granulated Swerve.
- One at a time mix in the eggs, followed by the heavy cream, and then the coffee, scraping with each addition. Add the vanilla, rum (if using), nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
- Scrape the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust. Gently tap the pan on the counter to spread the filling evenly. Bake at 325 degrees F for 35-40 minutes, until the filling is set and jiggles as one.
- Allow to cool for 60 minutes before putting in the fridge to chill. Chill the cheesecake for at least 60 minutes (overnight if possible).
- Use the foil or parchment to pop the cheesecake bars out of the pan and transfer them to a cutting board. If the bars are stuck, just dip the bottom of the pan in a dish of hot water for a minute to gently warm the outermost layer of fat. The bars will slide right out of the pan!
- Cut the cheesecake into 16 bars. For the cleanest cuts, I use a granton blade slicer. I dip the knife in a dish of hot water and quickly dry it with a paper towel before making a cut. Then repeat.
