This easy keto cheesecake fluff recipe is a quick and easy dessert that you won’t want to stop eating! It uses ingredients you probably have on hand, so it’s convenient to whip up. And thankfully, strawberry cheesecake fluff is very low in carbs, making it the perfect in-the-moment keto treat.

If you love cheesecake , are a fan of super simple, no bake keto desserts , or enjoy rich desserets like keto strawberry ice cream , you’ll love this quickie dessert that takes just 10 minutes to make. Picture the creamy filling of cheesecake, except more creamy, and you eat it with a spoon. If strawberries are one of your favorite keto fruits , be sure to also try my strawberry avocado smoothie , keto chocolate covered strawberries , and 5-minute keto strawberry shortcake . And for a lighter and fluffier no-bake dessert, give keto chocolate mousse a try.

How To Make Keto Cheesecake Fluff

Not only is this strawberry fluff with cream cheese incredibly delicious, but it’s also incredibly easy to make:

• Whip cream . Beat the heavy cream to form soft peaks. (You don’t want stiff peaks like you would when making keto whipped cream !)

TIP: For a better visual of soft peaks, check my keto angel food cake recipe . You want the tips to gently curve over when held upright – there’s a photo in that post.

• Make cream cheese fluff. Beat cream cheese and Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend together until fluffy, then bet in lemon juice and vanilla.

• Fold. Add half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese while beating at low speed, until just combined. Fold in the rest of the whipped cream using a rubber spatula.

TIP: Fold gently to keep the airy texture. Stirring will break it down. But, be sure to fold enough that it’s well incorporated.

• Add strawberries. Gently fold them in.

• Serve. Divide among little containers, top with more strawberries if desired, and enjoy with a spoon!

• What Is Strawberry Cheesecake Fluff? The best way to describe this low carb strawberry fluff cheesecake dessert is that it’s a fluffy cheesecake filling that you eat straight with a spoon. No crust required and no baking at all. It’s beyond delicious!
• Is strawberry cheesecake fluff keto? Yes, each serving of this keto no bake cheesecake fluff has just 3.9 grams of net carbs.
• Can you use other berries? Sure! Strawberries, blackberries, or raspberries would all work great. You could even use all three, like I do for my ricotta cheese dessert .
• Can you make the fluff more strawberry flavored? You can! As written, this is a classic keto cheesecake fluff recipe with chopped strawberries mixed in. If you prefer it to have more of a strawberry swirl cheesecake feel, swirl in some sugar-free strawberry jam .
• Can you use a different sweetener? Yes, you can use any powdered sweetener in this strawberry cheesecake fluff recipe. However, I highly recommend powdered monk fruit sweetener with allulose – it makes the creamiest texture with no aftertaste and also doesn’t crystallize if you have any left over. If you decide to use something else, my sugar substitute guide is a good place to start, so you can understand what might work. There’s also a sweetener conversion chart – use that to find out how much to use of whatever you have.
• Can you freeze it? No, you can’t freeze this recipe. The texture will get gritty and watery after freezing and thawing. I have not actually tested this as a frozen dessert without thawing, but if that’s what you’re craving, you’re probably better off making strawberry mason jar ice cream instead.

The Basic Keto Meal Formula

Eating keto doesn’t have to be complicated! While there are plenty of delicious easy keto recipes to choose from, you don’t even have to cook from a recipe to get started.

Simply follow the keto cheat sheet formula of protein + veggie + fat for your meals.

Be sure to choose a moderate amount of protein, only low carb vegetables (mostly ones that grow above ground), and generous fat to attain an optimal macro ratio. That’s approximately 60-75% of calories from fat, 20-25% protein, and 5-10% from carbohydrates. The table below will give you ideas for what to choose.

Understanding Macros

Macros are macronutrients for short. They include fat, protein, and carbohydrates.

You can calculate your own macros using the macro calculator , but the macro keto cheat sheet below will explain how to look at macros when following a keto lifestyle.

Carbs Are A Limit.

Keeping carbs low is what gets you into ketosis and keeps you there. Ketosis means that you’re using fat as your primary energy source instead of sugar, and requires keeping carbs very low.

A good starting point is 20-25 grams net carbs per day, but you can experiment after a few weeks to see if your body stays in ketosis at higher levels. People who are very active may be able to do more and stay in ketosis, up to around 50 grams per day.

“Carbs are a limit” means that you set a limit for how many carbs to eat per day and don’t exceed it. You don’t have to hit that limit, so if you’re under that’s okay, just don’t go over. Ideally most of your carbs would come from low carb vegetables, and if you’re eating enough veggies, you’ll usually get close to the limit naturally.

A common misconception is that reaching ketosis requires a certain macro ratio, but it’s really only restricting your carb intake that gets you there [ * ]. In the absence of sufficient carbs to use as energy, the body will switch to using fat as fuel. This is called the metabolic state of ketosis.

Protein Is A Goal.

Protein is made up of amino acids, the building blocks of all our cells. It’s a crucial for keeping our muscles strong and for many cellular functions [ * ].

“Protein is a goal” means that you always want to eat enough protein to reach the goal each day, but not exceed it too much. You want enough for your needs, but excess protein can trigger gluconeogenesis, which is protein being converted to sugar [ * ] and can kick you out of ketosis.

Fat Is A Lever.

Fat is the primary macronutrient in a keto lifestyle, because being in ketosis means that fat is your primary fuel source. Fat as a fuel source will come from your food, and if you are losing weight, from your body.

A big advantage of a keto lifestyle is the high fat intake. It keeps you full and satisfied, making it easier to stick to, and using it as the primary fuel source makes it easier on your body to burn body fat, with a lower chance of breaking down your muscle (provided you get enough protein).

Aside from reaching your protein goal and limiting your carbs, the remainder of your calories on a keto diet comes from fat.

Don’t fear fat – it’s your main energy source on keto, and getting enough of it trains your body to use fat for fuel instead of sugar. That means that as long as you are not overdoing your overall calorie intake, you’ll efficiently burn your body fat for fuel as well.

“Fat is a lever” means that you can increase or decrease your fat intake depending on your goals and hunger levels. Increase it (along with exercise) to gain muscle, or decrease it to lose weight.

Keto Food Swaps

One of my favorite challenges is creating recipes, or just discovering, keto food swaps. These are delicious keto replacements for traditionally high-carb or high-sugar foods.

So, I created this keto diet cheat sheet with all the swaps in one place! I also have more keto food swaps in my Easy Keto Cookbook .

Keto Food List

When looking for a keto cheat sheet printable, the most-requested information is a keto food list.

The great thing is that keto doesn’t have to feel restrictive. It’s incredibly satisfying and there’s such a wide variety of foods you can eat!

Foods To Eat On Keto

• Leafy greens – Such as spinach, chard, and lettuce.
• Above-ground veggies – Such as peppers, zucchini, and cauliflower.
• Full-fat cream & cheese – Such as heavy cream, sour cream, and full-fat hard cheeses.
• Natural meats – Such as beef, lamb, and pork.

• Avocados
• Unsweetened nut milks – Such as almond milk and coconut milk.

Electrolyte Basics

Getting enough electrolytes is crucial for anyone, but especially so on a keto diet. The reason is that ketosis has a diuretic effect, which increases excretion of water and electrolytes, especially sodium [ * ]. This is often the cause of the keto flu.

For more details on electrolytes and avoiding keto flu, check out the full keto flu guide here .

The important thing to know about electrolytes is that replenishing them will keep keto flu away and keep your body functioning well. I always recommend an electrolyte drink and whole food sources of anything your body needs before resorting to supplements, so I made a list of what to eat to get each of the 3 major electrolytes – sodium, magnesium and potassium.

Here’s your keto diet cheat sheet for getting electrolytes from food:

Keto Diet Types

People follow a keto lifestyle for different reasons. Some do it just to lose weight, others are after better overall health, increased energy, and reduced inflammation.

Strictly speaking, the defining factor of a keto diet is the metabolic state of ketosis, which is achieved by restricting carbs. However, many people (myself included) also reduce or eliminate processed, inflammatory, or low-nutrient foods.

Below is your keto cheat sheet summary of the different ways that people follow keto. You choose what works best for your goals and lifestyle!

• Strict Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, count all calories and macros, and eat clean, unprocessed foods.
• Lazy Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, and track only net carbs OR eat keto foods without tracking.
• Dirty Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, with “if it fits your macros” approach including processed foods.
• Low Carb – Up to 50-100g net carbs daily, less strict.
