Creamy Greek Yogurt Protein Cheesecake
A light, indulgent cheesecake that surprises with a creamy, tangy filling. The combination of Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and a hint of cream cheese results in a silky texture that perfectly balances the nutty almond crust and a delicate honey drizzle on top. Enjoy a dessert that not only satisfies your sweet tooth but also supports your protein needs.
INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup almond meal
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup fat-free cottage cheese
1 egg white
1/4 cup low-fat cream cheese
1 tbsp honey
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
In a small bowl, combine the almond meal and melted unsalted butter until evenly moistened. Press this mixture firmly into the base of a small, oven-safe pan to form the crust.
In a separate bowl, blend together the nonfat Greek yogurt, fat-free cottage cheese, egg white, and low-fat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Pour the filling mixture over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the edges begin to set. The center should still have a slight jiggle.
Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Before serving, drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the top of the cheesecake for a touch of natural sweetness.
Slice and enjoy a protein-rich dessert that fits perfectly within your nutritional targets.
