My whole family loves this cinnamon cheesecake keto smoothie! We combine just a few simple ingredients, toss them all in the blender, and in about 10 minutes, have an amazingly sweet and yummy treat. You can serve this as is, or can top it with some keto whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon! I hope you’ll enjoy this smoothie as much as we do!
Let’s talk about cream cheese!
If you’re wondering whether or not cream cheese is a good keto choice, the answer is an astounding yes! Cream cheese is made from cow’s milk and cream. Fun fact for the day! In the United States, in order to be called cream cheese, it must contain at least 33% milkfat with a moisture content of less than 55%. Cream cheese provides an excellent source of fat, while adding only a minimal amount of carbs. It is not matured, which means it’s meant to be eaten fresh and not aged. Cream cheese has a tangy element to it, but its flavor is mild, similar to mascarpone cheese but a bit less sweet. One of the greatest things about cream cheese is that it can be added to both sweet and savory dishes to add incredible flavor and creaminess!
What other ingredients go into this cinnamon cheesecake keto smoothie?
To our cream cheese, we add just a handful of ingredients, likely all stocked in your refrigerator and pantry, to make this smoothie. We add unsweetened almond milk, heavy whipping cream, keto powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla, and salt to create an amazingly delicious smoothie. When buying your almond milk, you’ll want to make sure that it’s unsweetened with no added sugar or other ingredients you don’t want. I used the Swerve brand powdered sugar for my smoothie. It contains zero calories and zero net carbs, and it’s incredibly similar in its sweetness level to regular sugar. You can give your smoothie a taste and add even more powdered sugar if you’d like. I love adding vanilla extract to my smoothies, but you can substitute with almond extract or a combination of vanilla and almond extract if you’d prefer.
How can I serve this cinnamon cheesecake keto smoothie?
This smoothie is amazingly delicious served just as it is! But you have some other fun low carb options for serving it. For a pretty presentation, you can serve it sprinkled with some additional cinnamon or you can serve it with a cinnamon stick. Another wonderful option is to top your smoothie with some keto whipping cream. To make this, I recommend chilling your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before using. Then to your chilled bowl, you’ll add 1 cup of heaving whipping cream with 2 tablespoons of keto powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. You’ll want to beat this until stiff peaks form. Stiff peaks mean when you remove your beaters, they form peaks which completely hold their shape! For a fun change of pace, you can also make keto cinnamon whipped cream, keto espresso whipped cream, or keto pumpkin whipped cream.

How do you make one serving of this??

Hi Patricia! I always make a big batch, and refrigerated, it will last quite a few days. It would probably be the easiest to halve the recipe which would make 3 servings. You could also quarter the recipe to make closer to 1 serving. That would be the equivalent to one and a half servings.
