I love an easy holiday dessert, don’t you? This is a l0w-carb way to enjoy all the flavors of eggnog without the sugar! It’s made with an almond flour crust with a creamy cheesecake layer that will make you swear you are cheating. But you’re not!

Eggnog Party Ideas
There are so many different ways you can serve eggnog in a way that keeps carbs low. These cheesecake bars are the best dessert you will serve this winter season. If you are a big fan of eggnog, make some keto eggnog chaffles for breakfast or brunch too.
This recipe calls for 1/2 cup of keto eggnog. Since you can’t buy low-carb eggnog in the stores, you’ll have to make your own. I have two amazing recipes you can choose from. This low carb eggnog recipe. That recipe uses eggs. If you are allergic to eggs, use this recipe but substitute sugar-free pudding and your favorite sugar-free sweetener.
Easy Keto Holiday Recipes
My favorite holiday recipes are the easy ones. Why spend hours in the kitchen when you can make something as easy as these no-bake cheesecake bars? You just mix everything together and let it set. You don’t even have to pre-bake the crust.
If you do want to do some baking, then these keto gingerbread cookies are a must! They are simple and fill your home with warm, spicy aromas.
Low Carb Christmas Treats
Cheesecake is a perfect keto dessert, especially when you use sugar-free sweetener and a low-carb crust. It’s basically just cream cheese, spices, crust, and toppings. This recipe is a holiday cheesecake that I turned into easy no-bake bars.
With the time you’ll save in the kitchen, you can make some keto snickerdoodle cookies to set out for Santa!
Whipped Topping Alternative
If you are watching your carbs, do not buy frozen whipped topping. It’s so much healthier to just take some heavy whipping cream and use an electric hand mixer to whip it until stiff peaks form. That’s it! It’s sugar-free and full of healthy fats.
How To Prep Eggnog Cheesecake Bars
These are really easy to prep and make ahead of time. Just add a tightly-sealed lid (or wrap the container in aluminum foil) and store it in the freezer. They will last about 3 months in the freezer. Then, when you are ready to enjoy your desserts, let them that in the refrigerator overnight.
If you want to store them in the refrigerator, they will only last about 3-5 days. The texture of the crust will eventually soften to where they aren’t as enjoyable, so I suggest you eat them when they are fresh.
Optional Toppings
These bars taste amazing just as-is, but if you want to make them even more festive, consider using these low-carb toppings:
- Unsweetened coconut flakes
- Mix in lilys chocolate chips
- Caramel drizzle
