Basque-Style (No Crust) Cheesecake - High Protein and Low-Sugar
This is an individual-size 4" protein cheesecake made with healthier cheese and lower fat. To make a shareable 8" cake, double the ingredient amounts.
Equipment
- spring form cake pan
Ingredients
- 2 oz sheep's cheese
- 2 oz Greek yogurt (no-fat and no-sugar added)
- 1 Tbsp milk of choice
- 1 Tbsp raw honey
- 1/4 cup seasonal fruit (or jam) of choice or cranberries
- cranberry sauce or fruit jam as spread on top (optional)
Instructions
- Brush neutral olive oil or baking spray on bottom and sides of (spring form) cake pan.
- Combine ingredients in one bowl. Reserve some fruit for the top, so they don't all fall to the bottom of the cake pan. Option: add softened pears to the bottom of the pan.
- Bake at 350°F/180°C for about 55 minutes. This will give a Basque-cheesecake feel as the sides turn a darkened brown (pleasantly burnt-ish) color.
