INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
2 Egg Whites
1/2 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/8 cup Almond Flour
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a small, non-stick springform pan or ramekin by lightly spraying it with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine the almond flour with a pinch of sweetener (optional) and press it evenly into the bottom of the pan to form a thin crust. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to help the crust set.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the low-fat ricotta cheese, egg whites, half scoop of vanilla whey protein powder, nonfat Greek yogurt, a few drops of vanilla extract, and a touch of lemon zest until creamy and well combined.
Pour the filling mixture over the chilled almond crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are slightly set while the center still jiggles gently.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled and set before serving.
