INGREDIENTS
0.25 cup Almond Flour (28g)
1 large Egg White (33g)
0.5 tsp Maple Syrup for crust (4g)
100g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
60g Fat-Free Cream Cheese
1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (30g)
1 tbsp Maple Syrup for filling (20g)
0.5 tsp Vanilla Extract (2.5g)
1 tsp Lemon Juice (5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a small baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
For the almond crust, combine almond flour, egg white, and 0.5 teaspoon of maple syrup in a small bowl. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
Press the crust mixture evenly into the base of the prepared dish. Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes or until it just starts to set and turn light golden. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, mix together the nonfat Greek yogurt, fat-free cream cheese, vanilla whey protein powder, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy. Use a hand mixer or whisk to achieve a lump-free consistency.
Spread the filling evenly over the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the cheesecake to firm up.
Serve chilled and enjoy your protein-packed treat that perfectly balances creamy tanginess with a delicate nutty crunch.
