Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix almond flour and granulated erythritol. Melt the butter and combine it with the almond flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Fold in the vanilla extract and half of the powdered erythritol into the cream cheese mixture. Pour in the heavy cream and continue to mix until the filling is creamy and smooth.
sprinkle the xanthan gum evenly over the filling and gently fold it in to help the cheesecake set.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Place the cheesecake in the oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains slightly jiggly.
Once baked, turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar to cool slowly. This helps prevent cracking.
Once the cheesecake cools to room temperature, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Just before serving, pour the sugar-free caramel syrup over the top of the cheesecake. Slice and enjoy!
