No Bake Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake –
No Bake Keto Pumpkin Cheesecake
I made this no bake keto pumpkin cheesecake a few days before Thanksgiving so I could avoid the holiday stress and have it ready to go for the big day. This is a great keto cheesecake recipe that needs no baking and uses nutritious gelatin to thicken it, making it egg free.
Traditional cultures used gelatin in soups, stews and broths much more often than the Standard American Diet and many health experts think that this is a missing piece in our health. Gelatin comes from bones and connective tissue of animals and it helps in the digestion of protein. Gelatin contains amino acids such as lysine that are not found in many foods and support the immune system. It is rich is minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, silicon and sulfur which support strong bones and supple joints.
