INGREDIENTS
150g Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
100g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 large Egg White (~33g)
10g Whey Protein Isolate (Vanilla Flavor)
15g Almond Flour
20g Pitted Dates
1 Vanilla Bean pod
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, mix the almond flour to form a thin crust. Press the almond flour evenly into the bottom of a small, oven-safe dish.
Bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes until it is lightly toasted. Remove from oven and let it cool.
In a blender or food processor, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, egg white, whey protein isolate, and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled almond flour crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
For the date caramel drizzle, blend the pitted dates with a tablespoon of warm water until a smooth, pourable sauce forms.
Drizzle the date caramel over the cheesecake surface. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours to set before serving.
