INGREDIENTS
1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (245g)
0.5 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (~16g)
1/8 cup Almond Flour (14g)
1/2 cup Blueberries (75g)
1 tablespoon Chia Seeds (12g)
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (if a lightly baked crust is desired) or prepare a small dish for a no-bake version.
Mix the almond flour with a tiny pinch of salt and press it evenly into the base of a small, springform or ramekin dish to form a thin crust. For a no-bake crust, you can slightly warm the almond flour in a dry skillet for a nuttier flavor before pressing.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt with the vanilla whey protein powder, stirring thoroughly until the mixture is smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and lemon zest to the mixture, and fold in half of the blueberries and chia seeds, reserving the remaining blueberries and chia seeds for topping.
Pour the filling over the almond flour crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
For a baked version, bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the edges set but the center remains slightly jiggly. For a no-bake cheesecake, chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to firm up.
Top with the reserved blueberries and a sprinkle of chia seeds before serving.
Enjoy this protein-packed, refreshingly tangy cheesecake as a satisfying dessert that fits perfectly within your nutritional goals.
