Lightened-Up Greek Yogurt Cheesecake with Date Caramel Drizzle
Enjoy a clean, protein-packed twist on classic cheesecake. This lightened-up version features a creamy blend of non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, egg white, and a hint of vanilla whey protein, all nestled on a delicate almond flour crust with a luscious date caramel drizzle. The dish is both refreshingly tangy and satisfying, making it perfect for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt (125g)
2 oz low-fat cream cheese (56g)
1 large egg white (33g)
1/2 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (approx. 15g)
1/8 cup almond flour (14g)
1 medium Medjool date (66g)
2 tbsp water
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and lightly grease a small, oven-safe dish or ramekin.
For the crust, combine the almond flour with 1 tablespoon of water. Mix until you get a crumbly, slightly cohesive texture. Press this mixture firmly into the base of your dish to form an even layer.
In a blender or food processor, blend the Medjool date with the remaining 1 tablespoon of water and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until it forms a smooth, thick caramel drizzle. Set aside.
In a bowl, mix the non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, egg white, and vanilla whey protein powder until smooth and well incorporated.
Pour the cheesecake mixture over the almond flour crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges begin to set but the center remains slightly jiggly.
Allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Before serving, drizzle the date caramel sauce over the cheesecake. Enjoy your lightened-up treat!
