Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, mix together almond flour, 0.25 cup granulated erythritol, and melted unsalted butter until well combined.
Press the almond flour mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden. Set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and granulated erythritol. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture, and blend until combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition, just until mixed in.
Add lemon juice and gently mix into the filling.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled almond flour crust and spread evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center jiggles slightly when shaken.
Turn off the oven, crack the oven door open slightly, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until completely set.
Once chilled, lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into 12 slices.
Serve chilled and enjoy your keto-friendly classic cheesecake slices.
