A light and creamy cheesecake that offers a burst of lemon and vanilla flavor, perfect for any meal time.

INGREDIENTS
2 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
1 large Egg White
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/4 cup Almond Flour
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 325°F and lightly grease a small springform pan or pie dish.
In a bowl, mix the almond flour with a pinch of salt. Press this mixture evenly onto the base of the pan to form the crust.
In a separate large bowl, combine the low-fat cream cheese, nonfat Greek yogurt, vanilla whey protein powder, and egg white. Beat until smooth and well incorporated.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract into the cream mixture.
Pour the filling over the pressed almond flour crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the mixture is set around the edges with a slight wobble in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to firm up.
Serve chilled, enjoying a protein-packed, creamy slice that fits perfectly within your nutritional goals.
