Cottage Cheese Protein Cheesecake
Enjoy a light, protein-packed cheesecake that satisfies your sweet tooth without compromising your nutritional goals. This dessert blends low-fat cottage cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, and a touch of vanilla protein powder for creaminess, set atop a delicate almond flour crust and sweetened naturally with honey.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 large egg white
2 tablespoons almond flour
2/3 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a small, non-stick springform pan or ramekins.
In a food processor or bowl, blend the almond flour with the egg white until it forms a cohesive mixture. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan to form a thin crust.
In a separate bowl, combine the cottage cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, and egg white. Blend thoroughly until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
Stir in the honey, vanilla extract, and lemon zest, adjusting the amount of honey to suit your desired sweetness.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle.
Allow the cheesecake to cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to fully set.
Serve chilled and enjoy your protein-packed dessert!
