Protein-Packed Greek Yogurt Cheesecake
Enjoy a refreshing and protein-boosted twist on the classic cheesecake. This light and creamy Greek Yogurt Cheesecake features a smooth blend of nonfat Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, and egg whites, accented by a touch of honey and zesty lemon. Resting on a delicate graham cracker crust, each bite is indulgently tangy and satisfying, perfect for a balanced meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt (245g)
1 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese (28g)
2 large Egg Whites (66g total)
1 teaspoon Honey (7g)
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (2.1g)
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice (5g)
1/4 cup Crushed Graham Crackers (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) if you plan to bake the crust slightly for extra stability.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a small, oven-safe serving dish or ramekin to form the crust. If you prefer a cold cheesecake, you can skip baking; otherwise, bake the crust for 5-7 minutes and let it cool.
In a blender or food processor, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, egg whites, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and fully combined.
Pour the mixture over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
For a baked version with a firmer texture, bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the center is set. Alternatively, chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours for a no-bake, mousse-like consistency.
Serve chilled and enjoy this protein-packed treat as a refreshing breakfast, a light lunch, or a satisfying dinner option.
