INGREDIENTS
1 cup Almond Flour (96g)
1 large Egg White (33g) for crust
4 cups Nonfat Greek Yogurt (980g)
2 scoops Vanilla Protein Powder (60g total)
4 large Egg Whites for filling (132g total)
1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (25g)
50g Dark Chocolate (70% cocoa)
2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a bowl, combine the almond flour and one egg white. Mix until a crumbly dough forms, then press the mixture firmly in an even layer onto the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes until lightly set. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, and the egg whites designated for the filling until smooth.
Sift in the unsweetened cocoa powder and add the maple syrup. Stir until fully incorporated and the mixture is well combined.
Pour the filling mixture over the pre-baked crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the cheesecake bars for 20-25 minutes until the edges are firm and the center is just set. Avoid overbaking to maintain a creamy texture.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, drizzle or sprinkle the dark chocolate over the top evenly.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours to allow them to fully set before cutting into 8 bars. Serve chilled and enjoy your protein-rich treat.
