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
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Divide the crumb mixture evenly among the muffin liners, pressing it firmly into the bottom to form a crust. Set aside.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, beat the low-fat cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Add the Greek yogurt, granulated sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Beat again until fully combined and smooth.
Step 6
Add the egg to the cream cheese mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
Step 7
Spoon the cheesecake batter evenly over the prepared crusts in the muffin tin, filling each about ¾ full.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the cheesecake bites are just set in the center.
Step 9
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.
Step 10
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.
