The keto diet has been quite popular for awhile now. I actually started it a few years ago and have had great success with it. I lost over 60 pounds and have kept it off. At first I stuck to a very strict keto way of eating, but now I eat a wide variety of foods, including dessert! I love peanut butter and cream cheese which are both keto friendly so I whipped up this rich, delicious Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Pie. It has a peanut no-bake crust that’s filled with the peanut butter and cream cheese mixture. If you don’t tell anyone this is low carb, high fat and sugar free, they will never know!
Pin for later!

I used Swerve for this recipe because it’s my favorite low carb/keto sweetener. If you are not familiar with Swerve, let me tell you a little bit about it!
- Swerve is non-glycemic
- Swerve measures cup for cup
- Swerve tastes like sugar
- Swerve bakes like sugar
- Swerve has zero calories per gram
- Swerve is natural and gluten free
- Swerve is diabetic, low carb and keto friendly
- Swerve browns and caramelizes just like regular sugar
- Swerve is easy on the digestive system
- Swerve is safe for my pets
Swerve is the ultimate sugar replacement and does not affect blood glucose or insulin levels!

Do you have the nutritional list including net carbs, protein and fat for Keto?

I do not due to different brands of peanut butter. Each brand will vary the amount of carbs, fat and protein. It’d have to be put into an online calculator using the brand you choose to get the accurate amounts.

This pie comes together fast and is absolutely delicious. I cut it in small pieces, I got 16 slices and each slice is 20g total carbs. If I take away 2g of fiber and 5g of the sugar alcohol, it comes to 13g of carbs. So you definitely have to work it in to your macros if your are trying to keep it under 20 net carbs a day.

Lisa, how many carbs are in the Keto Peanut Butter cream cheese pie?
Thank you

You have to use an online calculator due to whatever nuts and peanut butter you use.

It was yummy, but the granular Swerve in the crust stayed gritty. Did I do something wrong? Could you use powdered Swerve in the crust too?

Made this 3 times now & absolutely love it! I use Peter Pan peanut butter and under cut the sweetners by roughly a tablespoon. Delicious, though I calculated the carbs more than I hoped; around 18 net per slice. Not sure I did it right. Is there a reliable online calculator that you trust?

I just google an online calculator. Per the recipe, the nuts are around 18 carbs, cream cheese is 8 carbs, and natural peanut butter is about 32 carbs and I’m not sure what Peter Pan is. The sweetener, butter and heavy whipping cream are minimal. Once you add those up (using natural peanut butter) and divide by the 8 slices, it’s only around 8 carbs per slice.

I have been keto since June 2018 and have tried several dessert recipes. This is the first LEGIT tastes-like-cheating dessert! My carb-loving son even said it was “the bomb.” A small piece is just enough to satisfy!

What is the carb count per slice?
Reply
Lisaon February 24, 2019 at 8:05 am
It will differ depending on the type of nuts and peanut butter you use so you’ll have to put it into an online calculator.

What kind of peanuts did you use? salted or unsalted. Dry roast?
Reply
Lisaon February 20, 2019 at 10:14 pm
It’s up to you, whichever you prefer. However, I used unsalted and they were roasted 🙂

What brand of peanut butter do you use? Or does it really matter with keto? I’m still learning.
Reply
Lisaon February 19, 2019 at 7:13 pm
I use Smucker’s Natural and it has 4 carbs per 2 tablespoons, however if you are just starting out, you may want to find one with less carbs.

Do you have nutritional information ?
Reply
Lisaon February 18, 2019 at 6:57 am
You’d have to plug it in to an online calculator with your brand of peanut butter since that will vary.

I used JIF Creamy Peanut butter. Unfortunately I added up all the ingredients AFTER I made the pie and it came out to be MUCH higher Carbs per serving than expected. (Net 27 carbs per slice!!!!).

I’m not sure how that count is so high. Per the recipe, the nuts are around 18 carbs, cream cheese is 8 carbs, and natural peanut butter is about 32 carbs. The sweetener, butter and heavy whipping cream are minimal. Once you add those up and divide by the 8 slices, it’s only around 8 carbs per slice.

What kind of peanuts did you use? I have dry roasted peanuts and they total 36g total carbs and my 1 cup of peanut butter is 56 total carbs. There is no sugar added to either of these. Just peanuts.
Lisaon May 7, 2019 at 2:04 pm
You can use any, however for a lower carb count something like almonds would work best. I’m not sure about the peanut butter being that high…try to find one that is natural with about 3 – 4 carbs per 2 Tablespoons.
Lisaon February 15, 2019 at 8:45 pm
Once it’s firm, if you don’t eat it all, do you store in fridge or freezer?

In the fridge covered with saran wrap.

Delicious and easy to make!! Do you have the macro count for this amazing pie?
Reply

I don’t because it will vary due to the brand of peanut butter you use 🙂
