You will also LOVE this keto chocolate cheesecake and sugar free orange cheesecake! This was one of the desserts that I made for my family for Thanksgiving this year, and let tell you - it was a HIT. This recipe is a serious crowd pleaser and both child and adult approved! I do also highly suggest you make my healthy homemade caramel sauce first to use for this cheesecake, but you can also use a store bought caramel sauce if time is an issue. I had my Caramel Sauce on hand and needed to do something with it and then it just hit me.... cheesecake! Well, actually my first thought was caramel apples, which I will still make at some point but I needed a crowd pleasing dessert for the Holidays so that is when a caramel apple cheesecake hit me! Of course, I got to work straight away in the kitchen.

Yes! I highly recommend a water bath for cheesecakes! Technically, cheesecake is not cake. It's a custard on a crust. Custards do best when you cook them low and slow, which a water bath will help you to achieve. A water bath goes a long way in preserving a delicious texture!
My trick to ensure I do not get cracks in my cheesecakes is number 1, a water bath. Number 2, slowly allowing my cheesecake to cool. This is why I leave it in the oven for a full hour before removing it, sometimes I even just crack the door after 60 minutes but still leave it in the oven.
Chill your cheesecake overnight so it’s nice and firm. Open the ring of your springform pan and remove it, then run a knife along the bottom of the pan and slide the cheesecake onto at serving plate or cake stand. You can always add a parchment paper circle to the bottom of your springform pan so the bottom comes off more easily.
You bet! I would slice it first and then wrap each piece and freeze individually.
