INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (170g)
2 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese (56g)
2 Egg Whites (66g total)
1 tbsp Honey (21g)
1/4 cup Rolled Oats (20g)
2 Medjool Dates, pitted (48g)
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract (2.1g)
1 tsp Lemon Juice (5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small, springform pan or a ramekin dish.
In a food processor, blend rolled oats until they become a coarse flour. Press the oat mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
In a large bowl, beat the nonfat Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, and egg whites until smooth. Stir in the honey, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until fully incorporated.
Pour the cheesecake mixture over the oat crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula. Tap the pan on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
While the cheesecake bakes, prepare the date caramel drizzle. Soak the pitted dates in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften. Drain and blend the dates with a tablespoon of water until a smooth, thick sauce forms.
Once baked, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature. Drizzle the date caramel over the cheesecake before serving, or serve it on the side.
Enjoy your protein-packed treat either warm or chilled for a satisfying and nourishing meal.
