Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Bake the crust for 8–10 minutes, then remove and let it cool.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sweetener until smooth and creamy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Blend in sour cream, vanilla extract, salt, and matcha powder until fully incorporated and smooth.
Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the edges are set and the center slightly jiggles.
Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake rest inside for 1 hour.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to fully set.
Serve chilled, optionally topped with whipped cream and a dusting of matcha powder.

Notes

Use culinary-grade matcha for best flavor and color.

Let cheesecake cool gradually to prevent cracking.

Dairy-free alternatives like plant-based cream cheese and coconut cream can be used.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze individual slices.

Can be made crustless or with nut-based crust alternatives like pecans.
