Coconut Banana Cheesecake, THM S, Keto

This deliciously soft cheesecake is full of coconut and banana flavor. You would never know that it is sugar-free and low in carbs. A garnish of toasted coconut gives it all the feel of a coconut cream pie.

Cheesecakes have always been a dessert I enjoy making. There are also one of the easiest desserts to make sugar-free and low carb. I often take them to potlucks and church functions and very seldom bring any leftovers home. SInce I am in charge of the kitchen I am usually one to of the last people to go through the food line. Very seldom get a slice of the cheesecakes I take along, either. There is a variety of cheesecakes in the recipe section of my blog.

**Ovens temperatures do vary so it is very hard to give an exact time. It is better to under-bake a cheesecake than to over-bake it.

This is considered a Fat Category under the THM guidelines. I only use the banana for garnishing and often give my piece to my young children so I don’t have a combined fuel category.
