Low Carb Pumpkin Cheesecake Tarts

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

I was in a rush to get these done for Thanksgiving, because the ovens are going to be in full effect tomorrow and I’d have no time to make these delicious little guys.

The dough was pretty crumbly, so I smashed them into the cupcake tin, and hoped for the best. I decided to par-cook them for a little bit first to try to give them a bit of sturdiness before I spooned in the mixture. I also chilled the dough for 30 minutes before putting it in the tins, because it was falling apart on me when I was rolling it out.

The dough still fell apart on me after it was chilled, so I just made little balls and fit them into the cupcake tin as best I could. They turned out pretty great, so I can’t complain!

6. Stick them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes. You have to gauge this, but once the edges of the crust was beginning to turn brown, I took them out.

7. Let them cool, and remove from your cupcake tray. Be careful as the crust is a little crumbl-y, I had a few pieces break off as I was removing them from the cupcake tray.
