Greek Yogurt Protein Cheesecake
A protein-rich cheesecake baked with Greek yogurt and vanilla whey over an almond flour crust, finished with a bright and zesty lemon twist.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Non-fat Plain Greek Yogurt
0.8 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Isolate
2 large Egg Whites
4 tablespoons Almond Flour
1 tablespoon Monk Fruit Sweetener
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a 4-inch springform pan or a small oven-safe ramekin with parchment paper.
Mix the almond flour with a teaspoon of water and a pinch of monk fruit sweetener to form a crumbly dough, then press it firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, egg whites, remaining monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
Whisk the mixture vigorously until it is completely smooth and no protein powder clumps remain.
Pour the cheesecake batter over the almond crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are set and slightly golden, but the center still has a gentle jiggle.
Remove from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for a minimum of 3 hours, or overnight, to allow the texture to become firm and creamy before serving.
