Greek Yogurt Cheesecake
Indulge in this healthy Greek Yogurt Cheesecake – thick, smooth, and creamy with a high-protein twist. A deliciously light yet satisfying dessert perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
- 1½ cups Greek Yogurt Plain, non-fat
- ½ cup Cream Cheese Low-fat
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- ½ Tablespoon Lemon Juice
- ½ cup Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
- Crust of Choice
Equipment
- Oven
- Food Processor
- Cake Pan
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Combine all ingredients until completely smooth – I highly recommend using a blender or food processor for smoothest results.
- Pour into any prepared crust. Bake 50 minutes, then remove from the oven. It should still look underdone.
- Allow to cool for an hour before moving the cake, uncovered, to the refrigerator to set for at least 8 hours, during which time it will magically firm up and become more flavorful.
