Description: This recipe tastes just like Pumpkin Pie.. so moist and delicious! I have had many compliments on it and I had a friend make it. Even though they do not like Pumpkin very much they loved it!


This recipe is my own creation.. please do not copy for the purpose of publishing or use on any other site without my expressed permission.
Ingredients: CRUST


3/4 cup pecans (finely chopped)
3/4 cup Almond Flour
2 Tablespoons butter (melted)


FILLING


16 ounces cream cheese -- softened
1 cup splenda (pourable) or sugar substitue that is equal to 1 cup of sugar.
15 ounces pumpkin (one can)
3/4 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs -- room temperature
How To Prepare: CRUST


Combined finely chopped pecans with Almond Flour (or Almond Meal). Stir Melted butter into the nut mixture. Press the nut mixture into the bottom and 1 1/2 inch up the sides of a springform pan. Set aside while you make the filling.


FILLING


Blend cream cheese with the sugar substitute until creamy... add the rest of the ingredients except the eggs together well... Add eggs, one at a time until just blended. Pour over the crust.


Bake in a 325 degree oven for 1 hour. Remove from oven. Run a knife around the outside edge of the pan to loosen the cheese cake from the sides, to keep it from cracking. Let cool completely. After it cools refrigerate the cheesecake overnight. The cheesecake may shrink from the sides while cooling, but that is okay.. you are going to love the flavor.. Have a piece for breakfast, it is goooood!!! Tastes just like pumpkin pie... but only better!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): wonderful texture, creamy not grainy, excellent taste and appearance
Cons: none

So happy that I gave this a try. Next time I will use pumpkin pie spice, only because I like a more cinnamony, less gingery tasting pumpkin pie.


This was easy to make, great looking and super tasting. Very company worthy IMO.

Cons: Not one little thing, except I never got more than one piece because EVERYONE ATE IT ALL

I love this and plan to make it again for Thanksgiving. I am not going to tell anyone it's lowcarb either so I can see their surprise when I mention it AFTER it's all gone!!!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Fairly quick and easy
Cons:

I made this last night. It is pretty easy to make but I had to cook mine for about 15 min longer than the recipe called for. I also used the pumpkin pie spice. I think next time I will add a bit more splenda as I like mine a bit sweeter but other than that it was GREAT!

I made it in a pie plate w/o a crust. Super fast and easy to make and even warm it's amazingly good! I love it! I am going to go freeze it now, I lack enough self control to have it too hadny. Making it for Thanksgiving. Thanks!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Light and fluffy.
Cons: Cracked a little on top.

Slice up some of Dottie's Pumpkin Poundcake and cover the bottom of a greased springform pan. The pound cake becomes your crust.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Wonderful taste, Easy to make!
Cons:

This had such a great taste and texture. The crust came out so good also. My husband actually liked it and he is anti low carb/ low sugar. He did say he didn't think it was quite sweet enough, however I thought it was fine. I did use the pumpkin pie spice also. I made mine in a 10 in spring form pan, and did need to make an extra 1/2 of the crust recipe. I plan on making this for a Christmas Eve dinner.
If you miss the flavor of pumpkin pie, you really should make this! Also, I am not all that great at cooking, usually something ends up coming out wrong, but this was easy and came out great!

Positive aspects of the product (pros):
Cons:

My version of this cheesecake came out a little dense (too many eggs?). It wasn't a light and fluffy cheesecake. I didn't find it sweet enough either. It's ok. I don't think it's fabulous. And I do love pumpkin cheesecake in general, just not this one.

Thanks soo much! I won't feel deprived during Thanksgiving this year w/this treat! I thought it would overfill so wound up making into 2.One with the crust and one w/o. I tried the one w/o and it was yummy! I did not have pumpkin pie spice so used apple pie spice instead.I believe they have the same ingredients though~nutmeg,allspice,giner,cinnamon.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): The recipe is easy and delicious.
Cons: You can really taste the Splenda...but this is unavoidable.

Thanks, Cheri for the excellent recipe. I made this cheesecake earlier today and I just had a piece after the cheesecake had thoroughly cooled. It's delicious!! It's creamy and it has that great pumpkin pie spicy flavor. I did not have pumpkin pie spice so I made some on my own using an internet recipe (cloves, cinnamon, ginger, etc.) and it worked great. This cheesecake almost tastes more like pumpkin pie to me than a cheesecake...that's fine by me...this is fantastic...it really is. I will not hesitate to make this for company. I made this without the crust and I did not miss it. Thanks again!!

Cons: I doubled the amount of spices & vanilla

Do not double it. My kitchenaid barely had room to mix a double batch. Excellent!. Didn't taste LC/SF at all.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): easy to make and tastes good
Cons: that much pourable Splenda leaves an aftertaste

THANK YOU for this recipe, I've made it twice now. First time according to the recipe, and I liked it, but found that I could really taste the Splenda, and I prefer it a bit spicier.


Second time with the following changes:
1 c SF DiVince hazelnut syrup in place of splenda
2 t of pie spice instead of 1.5
I have to say the the second try was AWESOME - it was a rich, smooth & creamy Pumpkin Hazelnut Cheesecake. I took it to work for a potluck last week, and it was a hit - not one person realized it was SF Smile


I haven't tried it with the crust, and didn't miss it, but might try it at Christmas and sub some hazelnuts in the crust. If only Frangelico was on plan!!!

forgot to add that if you sub the divinci syrup for the Splenda, you drop the carbs because Divinci is a true 0 carb, and Splenda is not Smile

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Yummy! Easy to make!
Cons: none

This is a great dish even for non low-carbers. Although it is not as good as a really good store bought cheesecake, it is close. I made the crustless version to save myself carbs and time. I am still eating it... it was a great Thanksgiving dessert that I could offer to everyone.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): the texture is the best of all the SF cheesecakes I have tried
Cons: having to leave it in the fridge overnight! :)

Very good overall. I am tasting a bit too much Splenda, so I will try it next time with 1/2 splenda & half Toriani SF vanilla syrup. I would hate to change the cositency of the cheesecake though. It is divine. I made an extra one for a diabetic friend & am thrilled that she will have such a wonderful treat, too. Thank you, Cheri.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Yummy flavor
Cons: maybe too sweet

I used granular splenda instead of pourable because that's what I had handy. I've never tried pourable, so I didn't know the sweetness ratio between the two. I was going for 1/2 a cup, but in the end added maybe 3/4 of a cup of granular total, because I was afraid it wouldn't be sweet enough. It came out way too sugary for me to enjoy. x.x However, it does have a very lovely flavor to it and I'd still recommend the recipe. I even did it crustless in my glass-bottom springform pan. Mine cracked in the middle, but I don't mind. I also had to cook it for longer as the middle was still wiggly after 60 minutes. Might just be my oven, that.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Easy
Cons: not much flavor

I used 1/2 c splenda, 1/2 sf vanilla torani. I should have added more pumpkin spice, and I used 1 tablespoon. I think it needs more pumpkin flavor. Also the crust was soggy, even though I toasted the pecans and I pre-baked the crust for 5 minutes. My friends said that for a low carb dessert it was good.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Easy to make
Cons: Needs more Pumpkin Pie Spice

I made this and it was very good. Next time I would increase the Pumpkin Pie Spice (2 Tsp.) and decrease the sour cream (1/2 C). I used 3/4 C Granular splenda but should have used 1 C as stated in the recipe. I made this without the crust and it worked fine.

Cons: None :)

I made this for Thanksgiving. It was so good & easy to make. I am not a big cheesecake fan. I have always found them too rich & heavy. This was light & delicious. I am thinking of making this again for breakfasts!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): good
Cons: ?

I too would add a little more spice, but it tasted pretty darn good. First cheescake I ever made, turned out good. Made it for a holiday party, fed it to everyone with out telling them it was SF. Everyone said they enjoyed it and there were lots of clean plates to back it up. Thankyou for the recipe!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Easy to make and tasted delicious
Cons: can't think of any

Tried this for the first time and it turned out great (my first ever cheesecake made). I cut it up and froze individual pieces so that I could take it to work and have a sweet treat for lunch.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): EVERYTHING!!!
Cons: none

I must say this is the best low carb cheesecake I have ever had!!! I did not know it was so easy to make. I ground almonds and pecans and added a little flax meal to my crust YUmm!!!!! I also used a combination of STEVIA (Now brand) 9 pks and 1/2 cup of Xyliotl. This was great!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): A different type of dessert
Cons: Not exactly what I expected

I didn't like this recipe very much. I didn't use the crust, and it seemed more like pudding to me. I did take a suggestion form one of the reviews and used 1/2 cup splenda and 1/2 cup sf Torani vanilla syrup, maybe this made a difference.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great taste, very rich!
Cons:

This was great! I used 1 1/2 times the crust. I also probably used an extra 1/3 c pumpkin and another teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. For the sweetener I used 1/4 c splenda granular, 1/4 tsp stevia, and 1/4 c powdered erythritol. No aftertaste and tasted just like real sugar! Thanks for this recipe!!

Excellent recipe! i used erythritol and Torano hazelnut for the sweetener.


It really does take a couple of days for the cheesecake to 'ripen' but it's worth it!

Cons: none

I couldn't believe how easy this recipe was. The only problem is leaving it in the refrigerator until the next day. I made it without the crust, but I thing when I make it for Thanksgiving, I will make the crust too. Thanks for the great recipe!

Positive aspects of the product (pros): Taste was absolutely awesome!!! The best!
Cons: None!

I am new to this site, and this is the first recipe I have tried. Boy, did I pick a winner! It was really easy, and turned out really good! Hubby LOVED it. Was creamy, moist, and superb! I had cracks, even though I did not open oven, but I don't care about cracks at all. I took it to work (after 24 hrs in fridge), and had rave reviews. Then I told everyone it was low carb, and they were amazed. Based on all the suggestions from other users, I used two packets of sweetner (stevia in the raw) in the crust, and an extra tbsp butter, which turned out slightly sweet and perfect. Can't wait to make this one again. It was so good, I had to leave some of it at work to keep from eating all of it.

Positive aspects of the product (pros): easy, tastes great, keeps together well
Cons: NONE

Amazing. Cross between cheesecake and pumpkin pie. Great pumpkin flavor and the crust holds together well. I doubled the crust part so that I'd have enough to do a bit of a thicker layer.


Perfect for Thanksgiving!!
