Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams Low-fat cream cheese
- 120 grams Nonfat Greek yogurt
- 50 grams Granulated sweetener (e.g., erythritol, monk fruit)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 large Egg
- 60 grams Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Divide the crumb mixture evenly among the muffin liners, pressing it firmly into the bottom to form a crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the low-fat cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the Greek yogurt, granulated sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Beat again until fully combined and smooth.
Add the egg to the cream cheese mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
Spoon the cheesecake batter evenly over the prepared crusts in the muffin tin, filling each about ¾ full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the cheesecake bites are just set in the center.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the cheesecake bites cool completely in the pan. Then transfer them to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
Carefully peel off the liners and enjoy your delicious low-calorie cheesecake bites. Optionally, garnish with fresh berries or a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream.
