Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cheesecake Base:
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered erythritol together until smooth and creamy.
- Add in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and banana extract (if using). Continue beating until the mixture is fluffy and well combined.
2. Make the Pudding Layer:
- In another bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk and sugar-free vanilla pudding mix. Follow the instructions on the pudding mix package to let it set, but only for a few minutes as we want it to be slightly thickened, not fully set.
3. Combine the Cheesecake and Pudding:
- Gently fold the pudding into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. You should now have a thick, fluffy mixture with a cheesecake-pudding consistency.
4. Assemble the Fluff:
- Spoon the cheesecake fluff into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
- Top with optional sliced banana for a more authentic banana pudding taste. If you like some crunch, sprinkle crushed keto-friendly graham crackers or chopped nuts over the top.
5. Chill and Serve:
- Refrigerate the fluff for at least 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up.
- Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, dreamy keto dessert!
Tips:
- If you don’t have banana extract, you can use a few drops of banana-flavored stevia or skip it entirely. The pudding mix will still give you that classic banana pudding vibe.
- For extra sweetness, you can drizzle a bit of sugar-free caramel sauce over the top before serving.
- If you prefer a firmer texture, you can add a bit of xanthan gum while beating the cream cheese to help thicken it.
This Keto Banana Pudding Cheesecake Fluff is a low-carb, keto-friendly twist on a classic dessert, full of creamy cheesecake flavor and hints of banana. Perfect for those on a ketogenic diet who still want to indulge in a delicious treat!
