This strawberry cheesecake is a frozen delight made without added sugars, nut free, gluten free and low carb too!
To me the summer season is all about spending more time outdoors with family and friends, lots of entertaining, impromptu get togethers and long lazy summer nights relaxing with my feet up. At least that’s how I envision this summer to be or hope it to be, Yes I have some summer family goals of things we need to accomplish and deadlines to meet still, but that doesn’t mean I want to spend all my time in the kitchen. This summer I hope to bring you more recipes that don’t involve too much time and get you in and out with a bang and beautiful recipe to share and serve!
So what makes a really good frozen pie for the summer season? Is it the fact that no baking is involved? Is it the fact that anything frozen is just a fabulous cool treat in the hot weather? Or is it the fact that you can prepare it ahead of time and bring it to any party and it will be finished off before you can blink? I think it might be ALL of those reasons! Whatever your ambition for an easy pie this summer, making this will win over anyone to using sugar free substitutes as they will honestly have NO idea since they certainly won’t taste any difference.
If you need a non frozen type pie but one just as easy to make, this Strawberry Mousse Pie is pretty awesome as is this Peanut Butter Cheesecake Pie!
I brought this pie over to my extended families house for Father’s Day and what a hit! Since we have nut allergies in our family, the crust I came up with has an incredible nutty flavor without added nuts. No baking is needed for the crust either which is helpful. Just grind in your food processor and spread into the pie dish. Easy peasy pie!
I had only 4 hours of freezing time which was just enough before it was served at my sister in laws. It was out on the deck and with the heat, it was just soft enough to cut through and slice. If you do prepare it the day before and freeze overnight you will need more time on the counter to defrost before serving. I tried it again and it took a good 30-40 minutes before I could slice through it easily.
Even frozen you can still taste the creamy cheesecake texture! Top with a dollop of more whipped cream and a strawberry to each slice before serving.
Happy Summer!
Brenda’s Notes:
- You don’t have to use erythritol in the crust, stevia is fine too or leave out the sweetener all together if you prefer. It won’t change the nutritional information.
- You can sub the butter in the crust for coconut oil if you prefer.
- You can replace the strawberries for another berry.
- You could also change the liquid stevia to powdered if that’s all you have, here’s my conversion chart.
- To add some color into the pink filling I sliced 2 more strawberries and inserted them inside the pie so when you cut into it you see a few pieces of strawberries here and there.
- I understand the Weight Watchers points are high, but I also know I’m not using an artificial whipped cream like cool whip to make this pie. You can certainly sub cool whip in place of the heavy cream and could reduce your points that way.
- The fat is also high because of the fact I am not using a prepared graham cracker crust. Using sunflowers and coconut are higher in fat but much healthier for you anyway.

This looks like the perfect summer pie, such a treat! I love this recipe!
It is, thanks so much!
Wow! What a perfect pie for 4th of July! Can’t wait to try this – we’re fine with nuts, so I’ll sub my nut crust and add shredded coconut to it, which is s great idea, btw. Thanks for another delicious recipe!
Thanks Louanne, the family really loved the shredded coconut in it so it was a big hit.
i’m new to using these types of recipes (doing lchf for diabetes). i would love to try this but i do not like anything coconut or coconut related. what can i try instead of shredded coconut in crust?
You could use finely chopped nuts instead of shredded coconut.
Forgot to add my rating…
I need to try this.
Darn it, girl. I wish you’d posted this earlier so I could have included it into my round up today! It’s gorgeous!
Thanks Carolyn 🙂
I made this yesterday to serve today and it froze solid
it has been out on my counter now for 2 hours and it is still to hard to cut????
It will still be hard to cut through the crust but I was able to cut mine after 1 hour on the counter. Mine was in the freezer about 10 hours though.
What if you don’t have the liquid flavored stevia? would lemon juice and vanilla extract be ok? if so, how much?
You wold still need a sweetener if you don’t have stevia.
For a lower carb net, I will be using full fat cream cheese… don’t waste your money on low fat foods.. Low fat always means more carb load. You will also find this keeps you very full, results you eat less. Can’t wait to try new crust sounds amazing!
I am new to all of this baking sugar free but I really want to try it, where would be the best place for me to find all of these ingredients? Whole Foods??
Could you sub pecans or walnuts for the sunflower seeds in the crust? How would that change the carb and fiber count?
Yes that would work nicely. You would have to figure that out using my fitness pal or calorie count.
This looks sooo amazing! And those ingredients, whooo! I can’t wait to try this out!
Another great recipe that I have saved to Pinterest to try at a later date! Yeah!! Can you tell me do you prefer SweetLeaf better or NuNaturals?
I love sweetleaf!
Hi I don’t do well with whipped cream could half and half work as a sub or add more cream cheese
I think Half and Half will work.
What’s the difference between the stevia you listed and the Wal-Mart brand?? https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Granulated-No-Calorie-Stevia-9.7oz/37415081
Also, the links to the stevia liquid are broken. Does it matter which brand for the liquid as well?
Sorry for all the questions.
Thanks so much for your hard work!
The link doesn’t show the ingredients in the stevia so I’m not sure. I can say the links I provided for stevia are not cup for cup in measuring like sugar. So the Walmart brand might be fine but you would not need any of the liquid stevia. Just use a small amount than taste and decide if you need more.
