Keto Cheesecake Crust (with Walnuts)

3.92 from 25 votes

This keto cheesecake crust is packed full of flavor and has a texture that makes me think of a homemade graham cracker crust. The vanilla in this recipe makes it taste a lot like a sugar cookie crust. If you want a more neutral flavor, omit the vanilla.

Ingredients

4 cups walnuts raw
2 Tablespoons BochaSweet
5 Tablespoons coconut oil melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Line a spring-form pan with parchment paper. This is optional, but makes removing the cheesecake and transferring it to a plate a breeze!
Pulse walnuts in food processor until finely ground.
Add remaining ingredients and process for 1 minute until it forms into a batter.
Transfer the batter to your lined springform pan.
Working from the inside out, press batter into the spring-form pan making sure the batter goes to the edges and is pressed down firmly.
Bake at 300 degrees for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool completely before filling. (The middle will look like it’s not quite set up, and this is ok!)

Notes

You could make a lower calorie and thinner crust by making ½ of this recipe. Make sure you allow at least 30 minutes time to cool before filling so it can handle the cheesecake batter.
