Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- In large bowl combine softened cream cheese, Splenda, and vanilla. Beat with electric mixer until smooth. Blend in eggs, one at a time.
- Remove one cup of batter and spread into bottom of glass or crockery baking dish which has been sprayed very lightly with non-stick spray.
- Add pumpkin and spices to remaining batter and stir until blended.
- Carefully spread pumpkin layer over first layer.
- Bake in preheated oven 35-45 minutes or until center is almost set.
- Allow to cool, then chill several hours or overnight.
- Serve with whipped cream if desired and wait for compliments.
- I used a 10" by 8" glass baking dish to cook this. Next time I think I would double the recipe and only increase to a 9" by 13" baking dish to make a thicker cheese cake. This would show of the layers better. Some cinnamon dusted on the top would have been a nice touch.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Mix 1/4c Splenda, ground nuts and butter.
- Press into springform pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Turn oven down to 300-degrees.
- Bring all cold ingredients to room temperature.
- With an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese and 1 c splenda at slow to medium speed, scraping sides often.
- Add all other ingredients except eggs and pumpkin.
- When completely mixed (with no lumps), add the eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, beating very slowly.
- Fold pumpkin into the batter.
- When pumpkin is blended, do not mix any more.
- Always treat the batter gently.
- Add the pumpkin batter to a well greased springform pan.
- Place the pan on a very large piece of aluminum foil, and fold the foil up around the pan to create a watertight barrier around the cheesecake.
- Then place the springform pan in an even larger pan and fill the larger pan halfway with water.
- This is called a water bath.
- It is a gentler way to cook the cheesecake.
- Place the entire water bath containing the cheesecake in a 300-degree preheated oven.
- Cook for 1 hour and reduce heat to 200 degrees for 1 more hour.
- Turn oven off and leave cheesecake in until the oven is completely cool.
- The cheesecake can even be left overnight at this point.
- Cracks can also occur when a cheesecake cools too quickly, so don't rush this process.
- Let it set up for several hours in the fridge, preferably overnight.

Tips:
- Use almond flour or coconut flour instead of regular flour. Almond flour and coconut flour are both low-carb, gluten-free alternatives to regular flour. They will give your cheesecake a denser texture, but they will still be delicious.
- Use a sugar substitute. There are many different sugar substitutes available, so you can choose one that you like the taste of. Some popular sugar substitutes include erythritol, stevia, and monk fruit.
- Use Greek yogurt or cream cheese instead of sour cream. Greek yogurt and cream cheese are both high in protein and low in carbs. They will make your cheesecake thick and creamy.
- Use heavy cream instead of milk. Heavy cream is high in fat and low in carbs. It will make your cheesecake rich and decadent.
- Bake your cheesecake in a water bath. A water bath helps to prevent your cheesecake from cracking. To make a water bath, place your cheesecake pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water.
- Chill your cheesecake overnight. Chilling your cheesecake overnight will allow it to set properly. This will make it easier to slice and serve.
Conclusion:
Low-carb pumpkin cheesecake is a delicious and satisfying dessert that can be enjoyed by people on a low-carb diet. With a few simple substitutions, you can easily make a pumpkin cheesecake that is low in carbs and high in flavor. So next time you're craving something sweet, give this low-carb pumpkin cheesecake a try. You won't be disappointed!
